Measurable Outcome(s)

Some outcomes of the program include a greater overall interest in music, increased ability to attend to an activity, increased ability to positively engage with teachers and peers, and many others! We found that by working closely with teachers, we were able to gain a better understanding of child behaviors across settings, learning what is typical and atypical for each child.
