At the heart of our philosophy is The CMS Approach™, a student-centered methodology that supports educators at every stage in the classroom. We go beyond curriculum focus to provide the tools and knowledge for successful pre-planning, differentiated instruction, and positive behavior management in the classroom.
The CMS Approach™ was originally established in 2015 by our founder, Donna M Neill, MS, ITDS, L- BCBA and former Director of Specialized programming, to establish new day programs in South Florida. The concept was refined in 2020 for the public school setting, set within Mesa Public Schools, MPS.
Subsequently, approval was granted for the implementation of the 2022 current program, which commenced with a pilot phase and remains ongoing within the Florence Unified School District (FUDS).
