Learning for Life Program

Program Features

Learning for Life (LFL) is a specialized program that addresses the many different cognitive, physical, medical, communication, and social needs of students.

Instruction is individualized to address each student’s unique needs. As appropriate, physical, visual, and verbal prompts, technology, and assistive devices are incorporated into each student’s program. The curriculum helps build independence and includes functional academics and daily living skills. Activities, materials, and instructional strategies are age and cognitively appropriate. LFL staff provide immediate feedback and provide numerous opportunities to maintain and generalize academic and life skills. Students in this program are provided extensive opportunities to demonstrate independence and self-advocacy skills, engage in social interactions, access community resources, and beginning at age 14, acquire and practice vocational skills in a multitude of community settings.

All CASE programs are staffed with licensed teachers, teaching assistants, Registered Behavior Technicians, BoardCertified Behavior Analysts, Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Pathologists, Physical Therapists, and other related service therapists, including reading specialists, teachers of the visually impaired, orientation and mobility therapists, and assistive technology specialists. The specific mix of professionals and services is dictated by the individual student’s IEP.
