Newport News Public Schools offers the PEEP Program, a specialized educational initiative designed to support children with developmental delays and disabilities. The core mission of the PEEP Program is to provide a nurturing and inclusive environment where students can thrive academically and socially, ensuring that each child receives the individualized attention they need to succeed. The PEEP Program features a range of tailored services and therapeutic methodologies, including Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), speech and language therapy, and occupational therapy. Students benefit from individualized education plans (IEPs) that address their unique learning needs. The program also incorporates social skills groups to enhance peer interactions and communication abilities, fostering a sense of community among students. What sets the PEEP Program apart is its commitment to maintaining low student-teacher ratios, allowing for personalized instruction and support. The program is housed in a welcoming campus environment equipped with specialized technology to aid learning. Additionally, the PEEP Program offers vocational training opportunities and summer programs, promoting community integration and preparing students for future success.
