Our BCBAs partner with school staff, IEP teams, and teachers to generalize ABA skills into the classroom — reducing challenging behaviors and supporting academic success.
School consultation services place an Archways ABA Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) directly into your child's school environment. Our BCBAs work collaboratively with special education teachers, general education teachers, paraprofessionals, and IEP teams to ensure the strategies that work in therapy also work at school.
Skills that are mastered in a clinic or home setting often don't automatically transfer to school. This phenomenon — called the generalization challenge — is one of the most important and frequently overlooked factors in a child's overall progress. School consultation bridges that gap, ensuring your child's hard-won skills carry over into every setting of their life.
Children with autism spend the majority of their waking hours in school. Without ABA support in that setting, even the most successful clinic program can fail to produce meaningful change in the child's overall quality of life and independence.
Our school consultation services are comprehensive, collaborative, and tailored to each child's unique needs and school setting.
Our BCBA visits the classroom to observe your child in their natural school environment — gathering objective data on behavior, learning patterns, and environmental factors that may be contributing to challenges.
When challenging behaviors are present in school, our BCBA conducts a full FBA in the school setting to identify why the behavior is happening and develop an effective intervention plan.
We develop written, evidence-based Behavior Support Plans (BSPs) that translate clinical findings into practical strategies that classroom staff can implement consistently and successfully.
We train teachers and paraprofessionals on the specific strategies in your child's behavior support plan — building their confidence and capacity to support your child throughout the school day.
Our BCBAs provide expert consultation on developing and writing measurable, function-based IEP goals aligned with ABA principles and your child's clinical treatment plan.
We provide written progress reports documenting your child's behavioral and skill gains in the school setting, giving IEP teams and families clear, data-driven updates on outcomes.
