complete all time requirements for their course and confirm all activities with the school site
manager. This program is for the self-motivated student that is willing to experience an alternate
learning format.

Model-T Program/Life Skills

The Model –T Program will allow students to begin experiencing adult life activities in the
community while having the support of the school system. Where appropriate, students will
apply for work and be taught work responsibilities, participate in community-based recreational/
leisure activities, further develop independent living skills, and begin developing social
connections in the environments that the student will be using as a young adult. Model—T will
allow the student to explore options and begin trying out his/ her vision for life as a young adult.
It will also allow the student and his / her family to develop relationships with the adult service
providers who may be supporting the student in the future since these providers may be part of
the student’s Model-T planning and support team.
