Related services, such as mainstreaming, are
offered for students using the communication style that provides the
greatest access for the student. There may be instances when
students would be better served by maximizing their residual hearing or
cochlear implants in a setting where sign language is not
offered. The delivery of these services is determined on an
individual student basis. Related services include those provided
within the classroom, as well as those outside of the classroom, such
as audiology and individual speech-language therapy.
Related services reflect our communication approach which is
designed to be of maximum benefit to the individual student. Our
adoption of one language of instruction provides a consistent setting
which ensures complete access by all of our students in their
classrooms. The provision of related services is conducted in the
methodology that is most appropriate for the student.
Application of the integrated approach to communication best serves to
meet the varied needs of the students who attent Willie Ross and also
contributes to their academic development.
