School can be tough for any kid, but it can be especially challenging for children who have been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Since ASD can make it hard to communicate and interact with others, follow rules and instructions, and handle change and unexpected events, school can be a difficult environment for kids with ASD.

Fortunately, there are many school support services available to help children diagnosed with autism succeed in school. Here at Rising Above ABA, we offer a variety of school support services to help children with autism thrive in their school setting. Being able to navigate the school setting successfully is essential for children with autism, as it sets them up for success in other areas of their lives.

We provide support for the whole family, including parents and siblings. Through in-school applied behavioral analysis (ABA) therapy, we help children with autism improve their communication skills, social skills, and behavior. Learn more about our autism services in Massachusetts and how we can help your child with autism succeed in school by calling 888.572.7473 today.

Understanding Autism and School

Early intervention services, like those provided by Rising Above ABA, can make a big difference in how autism affects a child’s education. The earlier autism is identified, the sooner a child can get the help they need to be successful in school.

There are a number of ways autism can affect a child’s schooling, including:

Difficulty communicating with others

Trouble following rules and instructions

Struggling to handle change and unexpected events

Behaviors that are disruptive to the classroom

Sensory issues

While autism can make school more challenging, there are many ways to help children with autism succeed in their educational journey.

ABA Therapy and School

ABA therapy is one of the most effective treatments for autism and can be very beneficial in the school setting. ABA therapy can help children with autism improve their communication skills, social skills, and behavior.

At Rising Above ABA, we offer in-school ABA therapy to help children with ASD navigate the challenges of the school setting. Our ABA therapists work closely with children, parents, and teachers to develop individualized treatment plans that address the specific needs of each child.

Autism support for school can:

Help children with autism communicate more effectively – ABA improves communication skills by teaching children how to express their needs and wants.

Improve social skills – ABA therapy can help children interact more effectively with their peers.

Reduce problem behaviors – ABA therapy helps participants learn to cope with frustration in more positive ways.

Address disruptive behaviors in the classroom – ABA can help address problem behaviors that are disruptive to the learning environment.

Improve academic performance – ABA has been shown to improve academic skills, including reading and math.

Every step of the way, the Rising Above ABA team will be there to support you and your child. Contact us today to learn more about our autism support services for school.
