PLC students work on targeted goals throughout the day during structured learning times and naturally occurring activities such as outside play, social time, and lunch.  PLC uses the Assessment of Basic Learning and Language Skills (ABLLS) to inform and provide instruction. Progress towards goals is recorded and the data is used to inform continued instruction. PLC students develop skills that will allow them to access their education to their best ability and form meaningful relationships with teachers, caregivers, and family members.
