## Setting the Stage for Success with School-Based ABA Therapy

**Your child spends the majority of their day in a classroom. We ensure those hours are productive, supportive, and stress-free.**
‍
We provide specialized support for students in Rhode Island and Massachusetts who need more than just a standard classroom setup. Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) work directly within the educational system to ensure that behavioral challenges do not stand in the way of academic or social growth. By implementing school-based ABA therapy, we help students manage transitions, engage with peers, and focus on learning in the moment.
‍
Progress doesn’t pause when the school bell rings.

## Bringing Behavioral Support Into the Classroom

At ChildBuilders, we believe that the most effective intervention happens where a child faces their daily challenges. Our school-based ABA therapy is designed to integrate with your child’s existing academic structure. To deliver services within a school, the school or district must have a separate agreement in place that keeps expectations clear for families and educators.
‍
Our approach focuses on clinical excellence and high-level coordination of care with your child's entire support team.
‍
**We provide:**

- Direct one-on-one assistance from RBTs who implement a personalized classroom behavior plan
- Professional BCBA school consultation to help teachers adapt their environment to your child’s needs
- Detailed functional assessments to identify triggers and replacement behaviors in real-time
- Constant collaboration with school staff to maintain consistency across different subjects and settings
- Data-backed progress reports that keep parents and educators on the same page

This service is built for students who require consistent behavioral monitoring and skill-building during school hours. All programs are overseen by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) to ensure the highest standard of clinical integrity.

## When ABA Comes to School, Here Is What Changes

When a child struggles at school, the challenge does not stay inside the building. It follows them home. School behavior support delivered in the setting where those challenges occur is one of the most effective ways to create lasting change.

**Here is what families see when ABA is part of their child's school day:**

- Challenging behaviors are addressed in the environment where they actually happen, making progress more meaningful and more transferable
- Skills developed at school carry into daily life, reinforcing growth at home and in the community
- Teachers and support staff receive clear, targeted guidance, creating a more consistent experience for your child throughout the day
- IEP goals are supported through data-driven strategies designed to align therapy with your child's educational benchmarks
- Your child receives individualized attention without being unnecessarily pulled from the classroom
- Families receive regular updates from the therapy team and school staff, so no one is left guessing

We believe that therapeutic success is most durable when it is connected across all environments. Many families find that pairing this with home-based ABA creates the most stable foundation for long-term development.

## How We Bring ABA Into Your Child's School

Starting a new service shouldn't feel like a second job for parents. We handle the coordination with your child’s school so you can focus on your child’s wins.
Here is what to expect:

#### **1.** **Initial Discovery**

We meet with your family to discuss your child’s current challenges and what you hope to see them achieve in the classroom.

#### **2.** **District Coordination**

Our team contacts the school or district to secure the necessary service agreement and discuss how we can best support their existing team.

#### **3.** **Strategic Planning**

A BCBA performs a functional assessment and creates a detailed classroom behavior plan. We often reference the CDC’s autism resources to ensure our interventions meet the latest evidence-based standards.

#### **4.** **Active Implementation**

Once the BCBA school consultation phase is complete, our staff begins working on-site, providing consistent data and regular updates to the family.

We stay in your corner from the first meeting until your child reaches their goals.

## FAQs About Our School-Based ABA Therapy

Can ABA therapy be provided at school?

Yes. School-based ABA therapy is delivered directly within a child's school during the regular school day. ChildBuilders works with the school or district under a separate service agreement to make this possible.

How does ABA support IEP goals?

A BCBA reviews your child's IEP and designs interventions aligned with those educational benchmarks. Progress is tracked and shared with the IEP team to keep therapy and school goals coordinated.

Will ABA therapy interrupt my child's regular classes?

Sessions are scheduled to minimize disruption. Support can be delivered in the classroom, during transitions, or in a pull-out setting, whichever approach best fits your child's needs and the school schedule.

What is a BCBA, and what role do they play at school?

A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) oversees all clinical decisions. In a school setting, they assess your child's behavior, develop the behavior plan, and consult with school staff on how to implement it consistently.

Does insurance cover school-based ABA services?

Coverage varies by plan and state. ChildBuilders can help you review your insurance benefits during the intake process. Contact us directly to find out what applies to your situation.

What makes school-based ABA different from what the school already provides?

School special education supports are curriculum-based and often classroom-wide. ABA support in schools from a credentialed behavior analyst is individualized, behavior-focused, and data-driven. It works alongside existing school services, not in place of them.
