“At space coast discovery, we believe that every child, of every ability, deserves individualized instruction and benefits from inclusive classroom environments. Our unique inclusion program provides equal learning opportunities for all children, regardless of ability, to ensure they receive the academic and social skills needed to succeed in life. That moment when a child with down syndrome first begins to walk is a priceless time. The joy experienced by our staff and the child's family on that day brightens our lives. A non-verbal elementary student with autism begins to engage in conversation, and our hearts overflow. Since 1987, space coast discovery, formerly space coast early intervention center's, purpose has been and continues to be the education of children with or without disabilities in an inclusion environment. Established in 1987 by betsy farmer to provide a school for her son with down syndrome, space coast discovery has provided our students with the most up-to-date curricula available for children with or without disabilities. Space coast discovery provides the organization,curriculum and technologies that help all children to thrive, receiving an individualized and inclusive educational experience. At space coast discovery, large classroom spaces, small student-to-teacher ratios, access to therapists and handicap accessible equipment are only a small part of what is provided to create individualized plans for each child to best fit his/her educational need. Typically developing and gifted students act as role models for those with disabilities in their classes, modeling behaviors and growing from the experiences presented within the inclusive classroom through mentoring, hands-on learning and peer interactions. Each child is able to learn at his/her own pace with unique goals based on individual abilities. At space coast discovery, we believe that children are more alike than they are different. We believe that students don't have to fit into the program - we fit the program to match the needs of the child, and we believe that every child, of every ability, deserves individualized instruction and benefits from inclusive classroom environments.”
