Alternative Pathways at Kent
At Kent, we recognize that some learners need extra support. That’s why we have pathways that provide additional services for an additional cost. This gives us the opportunity to find the right educational fit for each child. All children have unique needs and learning profiles, and our integrated model of academic and therapeutic service offerings is designed accordingly. Our multisensory approach to teaching and learning, adjunct therapeutic services offered to those who need this additional support, and an available intensive therapeutic environment that offers a full array of academics ensure that there is a place for all children at Kent! In partnership with families, we strive to provide programming that prepares our students to lead happy, healthy, and successful lives.
Modified Learning Path
Students on our Modified Learning Path can stay in the classroom with their same-aged peers while receiving academic lessons at their personal academic level. This allows the focus to be on individual growth and positive, developmentally appropriate social interaction.
The Cyzner Connect Path
Students on our Cyzner Connect Path are educated within an environment that views them as capable and intelligent. Students are taught academic materials at their grade level using a variety of differentiated activities and strategies. While under the direction of the teacher, each child will have the support of a 1-to-1 registered behavior technician (RBT) to assist them in meeting necessary social, behavioral, and academic goals by focusing on personalized, BCBA-developed treatment plans. This program will work in collaboration with Cyzner Institute. Students on this path will also receive group and/or consultative OT and Speech services. Additional individual services are available and billed separately.
Transition Path
Students on the Transition Path typically struggle with anxiety and/or have developed an adverse reaction to certain subject areas. At Kent, we can create a safe environment where these students feel supported and assisted in slowly transitioning to perceived difficult tasks while still moving forward academically.
