variety of services to children requiring special services in both the
classroom and home environment.

Program Development - B.E.S.T. Services, Inc. has had
the opportunity to assist several school districts in developing their own
ABA school based programs. Typically, B.E.S.T. Services, Inc.
assists in the initial set-up of a classroom and provides training to
staff. Subsequently, the classroom is provided with ongoing weekly
supervision. The supervision of the classroom is slowly faded. This
supports the classroom teacher until s/he is able to independently
supervise the program.
