What Is School-Based ABA Therapy?
School-based ABA therapy involves applying applied behavior analysis within the school environment to aid students throughout their regular school day. Instead of replacing traditional schooling, ABA therapy enhances it by assisting children in managing behaviors, maintaining engagement, and developing vital skills that boost both classroom performance and social involvement.
Our therapists at Move Up ABA are skilled in operating within school settings, collaborating closely with teachers, aides, and administrators to:
Encourage positive behaviors
Enhance attention, focus, and transitions
Strengthen academic-related behaviors
Facilitate social interactions and peer engagement

ABA therapy does not replace school; rather, it complements the educational experience for children with autism and developmental disorders. While ABA focuses on teaching specific skills and behaviors, school provides a broader setting for academics and socialization. Together, they support a child's development, as ABA can enhance skills that contribute to success in school.
