Camelot Intermediate School Social Skills
Brookings School District
The Brookings School District's Camelot Intermediate School Social Skills Program is a special education program designed to meet the needs of students who qualify for special education assistance and have specific behavioral learning needs.
Students in the Social Skills Program work on the academic curriculum and standards set forth by the Brookings School District. Students also work on learning the behavioral and social skills they need to acquire to be a successful part of the regular education school environment. Modifications and accommodations may be made individually, based on each student's Individual Education Program (IEP).
Students receiving support through the Social Skills Program may be working with staff on a one-to-one basis, in a small group, or through inclusion in their regular education classroom.
