We know from experience that therapy programs can only be truly effective when teachers are empowered to implement therapist-provided resources at the classroom level. By providing in-service trainings to teachers at our partnering districts about various therapeutic techniques—at no additional cost—we ensure they have the skills to help more than just the student.
Not only does this approach help your team support more students and promote inclusivity in the classroom, but it also saves your district money in the long run. Contact the team at Pediatric Therapeutic Services (PTS) and we’ll show you how.Calculate Your Related Services Savings
Once we’ve identified an issue and a solution, our Clinical Specialists and Lead Therapists work closely with our Clinical Directors to develop, plan, and deliver in-service training programs to address the needs for your specific school. We involve all Four Pillars of Management, so it’s truly a team effort across all of PTS.
Our team is accustomed to regularly implementing district-wide initiatives, and we’ve worked with both large and small districts. No matter the size of your district or the complexity of your students’ needs, we’ll deliver the foundational and kinesthetic background needed to train teachers and monitor program effectiveness.
We also provide no-cost resources like games and activities from our Capable Classroom® that teachers can use as pre-referral interventions, like:
Pencil Power: A 6-week supplemental handwriting instruction program.
Super Self Program: A self-regulation group that helps students grow their social skills and self-regulation abilities.
Artic Blast™: A board game that makes it even more fun to practice articulation in a small group.

How Our In-Service Trainings Help Your District Save Time and Money
Because we provide high-quality teacher training at no additional cost to the districts who partner with us, we have a reputation for elevating the quality of therapy programming while concurrently containing costs for school districts each year. This is in stark contrast to the trend of steady increases in therapy costs experienced by most public schools. Here’s why we’re different: The Clinical Directors at PTS are hands-on and take the time to understand your students, teachers, and the needs of your district. They start by analyzing your district’s BudgetWatch™ program summary reports for issues that may increase costs. Doing this allows us to:- Catch issues early before they become costly problems for your students or your district.
- Use data to implement strategic solutions at the classroom level to address the core cause of the issue.
