ACE is more than a school...it is a unique educational model. This model was developed at Anova and is referred to as the Anova Method of Education, or AME. AME extends far beyond standard school requirements and is anchored by multidisciplinary treatment involving the frequent and direct use of Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Positive Behavior Support in both clinic and classroom environments.
The Anova Method of Education is anchored by a multidisciplinary treatment model that involves the frequent and direct use of Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Psychotherapy and other support services in clinic and classroom environments. Our professional therapists are employed directly by Anova (not subcontracted) and work from the classrooms and specially designed clinic space to seamlessly integrate their services into the entire school curriculum. The ACE School curriculum relies on state of the art computer technology including specialized hardware and software throughout the school campus. We also integrate the principles and practices of Applied Behavior Analysis into every facet of our program by training our staff in Functional Analysis Assesment technology and Positive Behavior Intervention strategies, which are incorporated into our school-wide and individualized behavior programs. We are a data driven program that designs measurable and observable goals for our students, based on formal assessment, and then continually revises these goals according to student progress. The following pages offer a more detailed orientation to the ACE School program and the fundamentals of the Anova Method of Education.
