The TAP-it has arrived!

Through the generous donation of one of our families we have received the TAP-it  www.teachsmart.org.  The TAP-it (Touch Accessible Platform Interactive Technology) is the first ADA compliant interactive learning station built upon Smart Board technology.  Use of this device will enable children of varying abilities access to computers through touch.  TAP-it is unique in that it can be positioned in a variety of heights and angles for the individual.  We are excited to have this new dynamic therapeutic tool at our Center.
