Program areas at Lighthouse School

Comprehensive services program, serving psycho-educational needs of students with multi-disability conditions, both academically and therapeutically. Lighthouse School, Inc. has been in operation since 1967 as a private, not-for-profit (501(c)(3)), chapter 766 approved human service corporation serving the needs of students having a broad range of disabling conditions. Lighthouse School operates according to a comprehensive biodevelopmental services model, meaning services designed to promote total life development are provided during the day, evenings, and weekends, both on-site and in the home communities of attending students. Enrolled students reside in many of the cities and towns of eastern Massachusetts and southern new hampshire, and are transported to and from Lighthouse School daily by the authority of the special education departments of their respective communities. All academic, therapeutic and life preparatory experiences at Lighthouse School are planned and provided according to the individualized needs of each enrolled student. These needs are met by services that are within the framework of apex bioeducation. Lighthouse School delivers a specific array of services according to each student's unique profile. The comprehensive biodevelopmental services model offers an interdisciplinary menu from which an individualized treatment plan is developed. Faculty communicate extensively so that quality and consistency characterize all student interactions. Faculty are trained to work together as a synergistic treatment team in order to maximize the quality and effectiveness of services. Lighthouse School is committed to providing services to students with diverse needs and disabilities. Students who attend Lighthouse School range in age from 3-22 years of age and have a variety of types of special needs, including developmental/neurological conditions, medical/genetic conditions, learning disabilities and psychiatric diagnoses.academic education is certainly important. However, for the student population at Lighthouse School it is not enough. At Lighthouse School there is a broad range of curriculum-based, interdisciplinary services which include educational, vocational, communication, clinical, neuromotor and medical services. These services do not simply work along side of each other. Rather, they are integrated into an approach called apex bioeducation, which produces a more powerful technical intervention resulting in positive biodevelopment than any service alone could produce. Lighthouse School has served over 100 communities in eastern Massachusetts, Maine, and southern new hampshire.
