Clarke programs in Northampton and Boston participated in a MA Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) Mid Cycle Program Review during the 2023-24 school year.
We are pleased to share that Clarke’s programs in Massachusetts have received full DESE approval and meet standards for Approved Private Special Education Programs through August 31, 2027.
This process identified one area for corrective action, which assisted us in identifying staff to receive intensive Restraint Training and to provide all-staff restraint training prior to each school year. Clarke is proud to continue to meet standards of excellence as we provide children with the listening, language and learning skills they need for success!
