"Vikings Row Together” Program
The purpose of the “Vikings Row Together”, or VRT, program is to partner with our Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) program to provide age-appropriate learning experiences for students in both programs. Students from the VRT program and the ECSE program are served in the same classroom, which provides a diverse, accepting environment where students serve as role models for one another. This blended model provides a highly-impactful setting for student learning for both VRT and ECSE students.
In the VRT program, our tuition-based students learn in an environment where they serve as peer models for students with disabilities while receiving instruction based on the TEA Pre-Kindergarten Guidelines. The role of a VRT student is to be a role model for the ECSE students by modeling age appropriate communication, social, and self-help skills.
