Why SAGE Rochester?

"​As a special education teacher, I commonly see the disconnect between a student’s routine and independence at school and their routine and independence at home. Often, a child is more independent at school. Schools provide supports and/or strategies such as visual schedules, visuals, timers, etc., to foster independence in the classroom.  When the strategies and supports used in schools are available for the home, a child is able to cultivate more independence, growth, and success.”
