Collaborative Support Program in Independent Schools
During their years of practice individually and as co-owners of WRSLP, Nicole Gerami and Nancy Theofrastous have served dozens of children on-site in independent schools. Over the past few years, more and more parents of children in independent schools have expressed a need for comprehensive services to address social communication difficulties that affect their children’s ability to (1) participate effectively in classroom activities and (2) develop positive relationships with peers and teachers. In response, WRSLP developed the Collaborative Support Program in Independent Schools which comprises parent and teacher interviews, observations and data collection, development and implementation of a behavioral plan, a customized teacher in-service, and scheduled follow-up. In many cases, implementation of this program has enabled children to remain in the independent school of their family’s choice. For more information about this service, contact Nicole Gerami at (216) 292-7370.
