Supporting our student's ability to communicate to the best of their abilities
The speech department at Harbor School is dedicated to providing each student with a means to functionally and socially communicate with others throughout their school day.
We will strive to teach these skills in a caring, supportive yet challenging environment where each child will reach their full communication potential. We believe that each student has the right to participate fully in developing relationships with others through communicating their wants, thoughts, feelings and ideas through a total communication approach.
