Its curriculum is based on the Virginia Department of Education standards and is enhanced by CARD’s Web-based program called Skills® which assesses each student’s skills and any challenging behaviors that may impede a child’s overall functioning and ability to learn. Once an assessment is completed, Skills designs an individualized curriculum to address development in eight main areas: academic, play, executive, cognition, social, motor, language and adaptive skills. Skills is being used by schools across the country, including the Los Angeles Unified School District, the nation’s second largest school district.
