Happy LABBB Bloggers Day!"

Hello and welcome  to our classroom Blog. We are a life skills classroom at Lexington High School's LABBB Program. The LABBB Program at Lexington High School serves high school age students with multihandicaps, as well as students with mild to intensive special needs. The goal is to provide academic
instruction, pre-vocational opportunities and vocational services. All students are assigned to
substantially separate classrooms with similar peers. They are also given opportunities for
mainstreaming into regular education classrooms. An integrated model provides speech/language,
occupational and physical therapies, counseling, and wellness/self advocacy groups. After-school
recreational opportunities are available. This classroom currently has 12 students from places such as Bedford, Belmont, Everett, Wellesley, and many other towns/districts. The students range in age and all participate in LABBB's vocational program. Please visit our blog for updates about our classroom as well as videos and pictures of our students working hard and most of all having fun here at LABBB.

Snow Cancellation policy!

12.07.2010
Dear Parents and Guardians,
As many of you may know, last year the L.A.B.B.B. Vocational Program made
a change in policy pertaining to delayed start times for Lexington, Bedford,
and Belmont High Schools, as well as Chenery Middle School. This alteration
was to maximize the safety of our students during morning transition, and to
diminish any confusion that may exist pertaining to adjusted start times. All of
the aforementioned schools will continue to calculate their delayed start times
from LABBB’s daily start time of 8:30 a.m. Example: a two hour delay will result
in a 10:30 start for LABBB Collaborative. This will provide the safest opportunity
during inclement weather conditions, for each of our students to transition into
their respective schools environments.
Sincerely,
James Kelly
Director; LABBB Collaborative
As a reminder— if your town cancels school, it is due to your roads not being safe for travel and students will not be picked up by their van company. Please watch the news for Lexington Public Schools (along with your own town) to determine if we will have school.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hello Parents, We are all excited to be back at school and hope everyone had a nice and relaxing holiday break. With the weather getting colder, please make sure to send your child in with hats, gloves, and warm jackets.

Winter Time!

During the winter months, please label all gloves, mittens, hats, scarves, and jackets that you send in with your child. Thanks, Bernardo classroom
