Program areas at The Monarch School and Institute
The Monarch School utilizes a unique therapeutic approach with Four Core Goals (TM) and sequential, developmental objectives in the areas of self-regulation and self-awareness, executive functions, relationship development, and academic and professional competencies. We offer safe environments where students can experience developmentally appropriate practices designed to help them progress in four different programs: Chrysalis, Bridge, Butterfly, and EMERGE. All programs are supported by therapy services and the diagnostic clinic. In these programs, students are supported from the preschool through the young adult stage of life. The educational approach is holistic, being both therapeutic and academic. Enrollment for the 2022-2023 year was approximately 117 students.
The Residential program provides social and emotional support, healthy lifestyles, physical movement, robust social opportunities, medication oversight, personal hygiene support, and meal planning which includes healthy choices, regular trips to the grocery store, and some transportation. Our Residential Program includes houses and apartments for young adults who benefit from assistance making the transition to greater independence. Enrollment for the 2022-2023 school year was approximately 16 students.
