Did you know that Occupational Therapists (OTs) play a vital role in helping students succeed in school? OTs work with students to develop the skills they need to participate in classroom activities and daily routines, such as writing, using scissors, and tying shoes. They also help students with sensory needs, social-emotional skills, and more. Today, we highlight our amazing OTs! #StudentCenteredFutureFocused
