WORTHINGTON
Special education teachers in Worthington Public Schools are participating in an innovative project designed to increase the team’s capacity to work effectively with children with developmental disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), during the critical years of brain and behavior development.
Despite being in a pandemic, special education teachers and paras at Prairie Elementary have been learning from national trainers in the STAR Program (Strategies for Teaching based on Autism Research). STAR provides school districts with effective tools to implement evidence-based strategies and to train and coach school teams in these strategies. The goal of this plan is to increase student outcomes.
