Assistive Technology
The AT needs of our students are reviewed with careful team collaboration to integrate specialized technology into the lives of students at school and at home.
St. Elizabeth School works closely with our Local School System partners in the evaluation of students and the selection of assistive technology to meet students’ individualized needs. An Assistive Technology device is any item or piece of equipment that is used to help a student benefit from his/her education. Devices can be “low tech” such as topic boards or “high tech” such as speech generating devices, tablets, or laptops for educational and communication purposes. Once the technology is chosen, the SES Team works to optimize the benefits to students, such as customizing, modifying, programming, and designing or selecting specialized software templates that accompany the hardware.​
