Try a pretend shop at home. Give everyday items simple price tags, choose two, and work out the total with play money or a calculator. Take turns choosing and checking.

One to Three. Never Twenty. 💙 Our new blog is here.

If a teacher has one hour and twenty students, how many are really learning? One? Maybe two? That is not teaching — and for students on the spectrum, it is simply not fair.

At Smart Start, our classes are built around one to three students, customized around YOUR student. Quality is our mission — and independence is the goal, so our students can live their own lives, in their own homes, doing their own errands. We are not a big center. We are a family.
