Occupational, Physical Therapists

Overview

School-based occupational (OT) and physical therapy (PT) are specialized, educationally relevant services mandated by IDEA to help students with disabilities access their education. OTs focus on fine motor skills, sensory processing, and daily functioning, while PTs address gross motor skills, mobility, and safe navigation within the school environment. Both collaborate with IEP teams to improve student participation.
