Teaching Approach

Updated 7mo ago

Mariposa School describes its teaching approach as individualized, data-driven instruction rooted in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), using tools such as VB-MAPP, ABLLS-R, and the Vineland to assess each learner’s strengths and needs and update plans regularly. Teaching is delivered primarily in 1:1 and small-group formats across both structured and natural environments, with goals focused on communication, social, play, adaptive, and academic skills that help students progress toward greater independence and, when appropriate, transition to less restrictive settings.
