On Friday, January 24th, JC/LISD Academy students had the opportunity to visit the Adult Transitions Support Services (ATSS) classroom at Siena Heights University. ATSS is a program for post-secondary students (age 18-26) who receive special education services. The goal of ATSS is to develop sustainable independence through purposeful programming that is specific to the needs of each student. Programming is based on volunteerism, daily living skills, communication skills, and community involvement. These activities and experiences aid students in gaining independence in their homes and communities.
The partnership between ATSS and the JC/LISD Academy will assist students with disabilities to integrate into a college campus environment, allowing for greater and more meaningful peer-to-peer interaction. This partnership also enhances diverse opportunities for Academy students by promoting awareness and collaboration.
