Educational Support
According to its website, the First Presbyterian Preschool has created a partnership with the Adaptive Learning Center (ALC) in 2006 to provide an Inclusive Preschool Program.
The website stated that the Presbyterian preschool serves children with disabilities and special needs in the classrooms through the said partnership.
The children participate fully in the school activities with the support from special education facilitators provided by the ALC.
Meanwhile, the school's "Haven" is a multi-sensory room designed for the benefit of all the students.
The Atlanta Presbyterian Preschool said the students would enjoy the Haven as another physical activity area and get the wiggles out on rainy days.
The preschool underscored that the Haven is an excellent addition to First Presbyterian classrooms and a very popular space for the children to romp and play, utilized for occupational therapy.
The Presbyterian Preschool has partnered with Talk Time for Kids, a local group of pediatric speech-language therapists and occupational therapists.
The school said it arranges to screen for children in the twos, threes, pre-kindergarten, and kindergarten classes.
In addition, it also allowed a limited number of students to participate in on-site speech-language therapy and occupational therapy before, during, or after the school day, the preschool added.
Meanwhile, Prevent Blindness Georgia provides vision screening for preschool pre-kindergarten students. The said service is free of charge, according to the school.
