"A student who was eating only pureed foor last year is now eating solid foods including jelly sandwiches, macaroni and cheese, and ravioli. She is also feeding herself with a spoon, carrying her lunch bag to the cafeteria and walking to the lunchroom on her own. Last year she was taken to the cafeteria in a stroller. I'm so proud of her progress."

Preschool Programs

Home

Summit offers a broad range of services to preschool-age children who present developmental delays. A team of professionals in concert with the child's parents develop a detailed education plan that specifies the objectives for learning to be provided in the most appropriate setting. Our professional staff then provide services as specified in the plan, working to achieve the specific objectives for learning. For example, one of our many speech pathologists may travel to a family’s home or preschool program and provide instruction to improve the child’s ability to use words to communicate and to be more easily understood by others. Collaboration between providers, parents, and preschool teachers is the key to promoting carryover of newly developed skills.

Summit's highly qualified staff are available to serve children in every area of early child development including:

Social Work	Speech Pathology
Occupational Therapy	Special Education
Psychology	Physical Therapy
Bilingual Services (Spanish)	Audiology
Preschool	Applied Behavior Analysis
	Hearing Impaired Services
