Each
program or school within the SSEC has a specific focus to
meet the learning needs of the individual student or adult
enrolled. Students or adults attending the SSEC may have a
diagnosis in the area of autism, emotional, specific
learning, medical, or physical disabilities. At the SSEC, we
also understand and develop instructional and therapeutic
programs for students who are challenged with multiple
disabilities. Students are referred to the SSEC by school
districts throughout southeastern Massachusetts when the
district has not been able to meet the educational and /or
emotional needs of the student.
We have a
highly experienced
staff, and a wide range of
schools,
programs,
professional
development, and
other services to meet the
needs of students, parents, teachers, and administrators.
