WHAT AGE RANGE ARE CONCORDIA LEARNING CENTER'S STUDENTS?

As almost 90% of what a child learns in the first 3 years of life is through visual observation, Concordia Learning Center's services start with the very young—infants up to 3 years of age. Our Early Intervention Program ensures the infant does not fall behind his or her sighted peers. By learning at home and working in close cooperation with parents and family members, every child is given the opportunity to build a sound developmental foundation that will prepare them for the rest of their lives.

This is followed by the Pre-School Program for children aged 3 to 5 years with its emphasis on basic academic education, independence skills, socialization, and learning through play.

Then comes a series of increasingly sophisticated and wide-ranging Educational and Independence Programs for students 6 to 21 years of age. Woven throughout all these programs are key independence skills including orientation and mobility, and preparation for pursuing employment options in the community at large.
