Apache Junction Satellite classrooms are provided through a public private partnership. The partnership provides students who attend Apache Junction classroom support to gain the necessary skills for full integration into the general education classrooms.
Using the Expanded Menta Method and highly qualified trained Menta staff, the Apache Junction School District serves the needs of their students with disabilities through a continuum of fluid supports and services leading to improved post-school outcomes.
These structured classrooms provide students with universally designed learning opportunities on the general education campus. These learning opportunities provide students with two levels of intervention:
The Menta Group believes that preparing students for a changing world requires an unrelenting focus on developing the skills necessary to be college, career, and citizenship ready upon graduation, serving students in the least restrictive setting, and providing the services necessary to help students successfully transition from school to adult life. For this reason, we strive to collaborate with the communities in which we serve and provide educational services in the communities in which our students live. Through partnerships, we are better able to broaden the quality of services provided and to increase student and community success.
PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS and/or PARTNERSHIPS
The Menta Group affiliates are members/partners with CEC, CASE, Autism Speaks, ASBA, AAPSEC, AASA, CCSSO, SEAA, ASCD, and many more associations that focus on the education of children with disabilities.
