Augmentative and Alternative Communication, or AAC, includes the tools and strategies individuals use to communicate when speech alone may not meet their communication needs. This can include picture symbols, communication boards, sign language, and speech generating devices.

At ALCA, many of our students use these AAC strategies and devices throughout their school day to express their wants, needs, thoughts, feelings, and choices. These tools help students participate in classroom activities and connect with others.

During AAC Awareness Month, we celebrate every form of communication and recognize the importance of making sure every student has the opportunity to be heard, understood, and included!

Happy National Custodian Day! Today, we’re giving a big shoutout to our School Custodian, Dave, and our School Services Team Member, Zach, who work hard every day to keep ALCA clean, comfortable, and ready for our students and staff. From the everyday cleanups to the jobs that often go unnoticed, Dave and Zach help make ALCA a welcoming place for everyone. We appreciate all the hard work, dedication, and care they put into our school each day.
