ABA Centers of Georgia: In-School ABA Therapy
In-School ABA Therapy to Support Students Across Georgia
School can be a demanding environment for students on the spectrum, especially when expectations around their learning, behavior, and social interaction increase. At ABA Centers of Georgia, we designed our in-school ABA therapy service to support students directly at school in their daily routines.
By providing ABA support where learning happens every day, we help students build practical skills that support academic participation, social development, and emotional regulation.
How In-School ABA Therapy Works
In-school ABA therapy brings individualized behavioral support into the classroom and other school-based settings. Our Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), work with students during real school activities to reinforce positive behaviors and strengthen communication and coping skills.
Support may take place during classroom instruction, transitions between activities, group work, or other parts of the school day, depending on each student’s needs and goals.
Collaboration With Schools and Families
At ABA Centers of Georgia, we work collaboratively with a variety of school districts to support students within their educational environments. This partnership approach allows our team to align strategies with teachers and school staff while maintaining consistency across settings.
Schools are also required to comply with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), a federal law that helps ensure students with disabilities receive appropriate educational support.
Skill Development in Real-Time School Settings
Providing ABA therapy in school allows students to practice skills in the moments when they’re needed. In-school support may focus on:
- Improving attention and classroom participation
- Supporting communication with peers and educators
- Encouraging positive behavior and emotional regulation
- Promoting independence during daily school routines
Learning in the school environment helps skills generalize naturally into academic and social situations.
