Prepping for Back to School and Day Program

How do you prep and prepare your family for getting everyone ready to go back to school or to get back in their routine for their daily program?

Whether it is the excitement of the very first day of school, the transition between grade school to middle school, middle school to high school, or high school to transition, wishing our young adults the best of luck as they start their college career, or sending off our adults to get back into their Day Program, families all around prep and prepare to begin new and exciting routines! Teachers and staff alike, also have to prepare! Their classrooms and offices may need to be revamped and rejuvenated, decorated, and overall ready to welcome the eager learners.

Giant Steps’ Day School and Canopy Adult Day Program are gearing up to welcome students and participants back into the buildings soon. This week, Giant Steps’ staff and Canopy staff are participating in our yearly in-service week of training and classroom preparation. Canopy Adult Day Program resumes on Thursday, August 15, 2019, while Giant Steps’ Day School will welcome students on Monday, August 19, 2019.
