The Peer PUPS program blends children with disabilities and their typically developing peers. The AM & PM 4-day a week (Monday through Thursday) program will meet the needs of all learners.

Early childhood special education services are available for children ages three to five with special needs. Peer PUPS participate in individualized, developmentally appropriate activities to meet the unique needs of children with disabilities.

Peer models enhance the education of children with delays as a helper, leader, and friend. Peers will participate in activities that will prepare them for kindergarten. They will gain confidence, build friendships, and learn empathy. The Peer PUPS program is located at Wyman Elementary.
