Community Learning Skills Programs focus upon students with moderate mental disabilities that result in significant delays in all areas of development. These programs help students to gain basic reading, writing and numeracy skills they can apply in daily life. They also promote knowledge of the world and community, work skills and work ethic, independent basic life skills, and behavior and social skill that are appropriate in a variety of situations. Program emphasis shifts over the school years. In the elementary years, classes focus upon basic academic skills and communication as well as personal and social development. In secondary programs, the development of increasing independence and the application of functional skills at home, in suitable employment/volunteer situations, in recreational facilities, and in the community are promoted.
