The main focus of CSID is the development of intellectual and social skills in a group setting for children with all abilities. CSID has an all-encompassing co-curricular program that targets the most important skills necessary for children who have social skill deficits. In general, typical classroom settings have a very limited emphasis on incorporating social skills. The successful individual is able to navigate both social and academic environments. CSID creates the opportunity to develop and master these valuable skills needed for lifelong success. The combination of these valuable skills are imperative to teach our children so that they are able to function to their best ability and be adaptable across all their environments to be successful in life.

With a passion to help prepare all students to be successful in the real world, our center utilizes a combination of progressive yet empirically supported strategies and curriculums. We assess each student during our application and assessment process and use those results to place them with like-minded peers. Small group team building presentations of everyday problems and social situations encourage next level cognition skills to develop in a more naturalistic environment.
