The Southwestern Central School Transition service is a program that is mandated by federal and state laws under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, also known as the IDEA. The student's transition from a supportive school environment to a world of adult services can be stressful and confusing if plans are not made in preparation for this milestone. Our program is designed to give students an opportunity to explore the world of work through volunteer and other work experiences within the local community. Students gain knowledge and skills expected in the workplace. This is a very effective venue for promoting attitudes and behaviors which enable the students to become productive members of society upon graduation.
