Other Schools in Fort Worth, TX
Boulevard Heights School and Transition Center
Boulevard Heights serves Fort Worth ISD students ages 3 to 22 whose intellectual disabilities, autism or severe behavioral challenges have made a general campus difficult. Students come to our El Campo campus through the district's Admission, Review and Dismissal process. We teach academic subjects alongside social skills, community living and vocational skills. Instruction shifts toward practical skills as students get older. Our elementary program combines academic and functional learning, while postsecondary instruction focuses on daily living and adult skills. Speech, occupational and physical therapy, music therapy and adapted physical education are provided as directed by each student's Individualized Education Plan. We teach behavior skills with the goal of helping students return to a less restrictive setting.
