Developmental Disabilities Institute-Ronkonkoma Campus in Ronkonkoma, NY

Day Care Center Description

Students transitioning from the Early Intervention Program or are referred to from their school district Committee on Pre-school Special Education (CPSE) attend either our Medford or Ronkonkoma Campus. The preschool program provides six hours of intensive intervention through individual and small group instruction utilizing the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis. Our students benefit from a 6:1:3.5 class size ratio. Students meeting prerequisite social academic behavioral and language skills are accompanied to a community-based preschool program by a trained New York State Certified assistant instructor. This experience provides our students with an opportunity to generalize skills learned at YAP and begin to develop the ability to learn from their typically developing peers in a more natural educational setting. Our students parents receive hands-on parent training during the school day where they learn to teach their child so that they may be able to continue their childs education at home and generalize skills learned at YAP. The program also provides bi-monthly evening lectures that teach parents the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis in order to give them a better theoretical understanding of how their child learns. The goal of our program is for our students to return to their home school districts kindergarten programs by age six. This child care center is licensed to dispense prescription medicines
