I enrolled my son in this program at age 6. Having multiple disabilities, he was not able to crawl or walk among many other things. By this age, I had nearly "given up" on him ever crawling, much less walking, in an effort to focus on other developmental milestones. The specially trained teacher - called a Conductor - saw things differently. With the one-on-one program, my son learned to crawl within the year! Despite having to overcome multiple medical issues, my son has continued to blossom at CECO and they continue to support him and encourage him to be the best he can be! He is 17 years old now, walks with assistance, can pedal and steer a bike himself, propel his own wheelchair, among many others amazing things!
My educational and professional experience is that of a Special Education Teacher.....CECO is where MY son goes!
My son has attended this school for the past 5 years and they have worked miracles with him! When he first started at the school, he couldn't even sit up on his own. With the help of 1 on 1 assistance, he is now able to hold your hand and walk. The teachers and assistants at the school make it feel like a family because they care so much about the kids. There isn't a school like it in the area. They help children be able to live a more independent life. They are a non-profit and try to keep the tuition affordable which is only able to be done through donations. If you want to see how your donations will be put to use, I highly recommend that you visit the school. It will warm your heart!
