Coronado provides a variety of components to choose from within our services. Our mission is to equip students with the tools needed to enhance independence in life after graduation. These components are:

1. Inclusion- with supports, if needed, by teacher assistants or student tutors.

2. Teamed Teaching Classes- A regular class teacher and a Special Ed teacher co- teach to provide additional support to Special Ed. Students for optimal success.

3. Resource classes-

     a. Offered by special Ed. Teachers with an academic approach in Reading,
         Social Studies, Math and Science.

     b. Life Skills oriented classes for students with more significant needs. Lessons
         are aligned with daily living and community access skills such as: self-
         advocacy skills, safety skills, leisure skills - all with social and communication
         skills integrated throughout.

     c. Community- Based Education - Students draw parallels from their small group
         community learning experiences and expand upon this knowledge in the
         classroom.

     d. Vocation/Prevocational exploration and training:

            - Job visits to increase awareness of entry level jobs in various businesses
              and their characteristics as compared to individual preferences, strengths
              and their weaknesses.

              community for upper level students.
