The First School In the United States Built Solely to Educate and Provide Therapeutic Services to Children with Multiple Disabilities

At The A. Harry Moore School, the O.T.’s primary goal is to improve and enhance the student’s ability to access the educational environment.   We work together with the families and other departments to create an individual and unique treatment plan to meet the student’s therapeutic needs.   Our department focuses on the whole child and addresses their individual challenges using their strengths to create various treatment strategies to help the child succeed.
