The Day Program at the Boston Higashi School operates
217 days a year, and utilizes the methodology of Daily
Life Therapy® to deliver all of its educational services
through a holistic, group dynamic program. Students
develop an inner sense of well-being and confidence
which propels their curiosity about the world around
them through clear structure, a high level of engaging
activities, and spontaneous fun.
Our program blends the
curricular areas of communication, social education,
academics, art, music, physical education, technology
and employment education. Instructional methods
are designed to teach students at their individual
level through real and meaningful experiences in the
classroom, throughout the school campus, and in the
community.
We are an open school; we have many
visitors, and parents are always welcome to observe
their child in class. Parent collaboration is essential
for successful generalization of school learning to the
home and community, and forms a key component of
our school mission.
