Vocational/Transitional

Greenacre School has developed a comprehensive vocational education and transitional career development program.  In our vocational training we teach students responsibility and collaborative teamwork through the use of real life and community based learning.  Our goal is to prepare our students for their adult roles, including wage earner, productive community citizen, and lifelong learner.  Our student-centered program incorporates learning through actual work experience such as landscaping, gardening, construction and food service.  Our student workers achieve increasing standards of independence through higher expectations and accountability.  Workers reach their goals with the support of an entire team including:  parents, teachers, counselors, residential staff, and community employers.  Highlights include:

• Extensive Variety of Work Opportunities
  
• Goal Directed Training
  
• Serving Students up to age 22
  
• Promote Independence and Teamwork Skills
  
• Social Interaction and Community Integration
