    Based on the student’s IEP, Behavioral Therapy is offered to help a student learn boundaries, consequences, rewards of life, goal setting, as well as other fundamental Executive Functions (prioritizing, self-talk, etc.). Fundamentally, the Yeshiva implements a Token Economy (point system) for all of the daily schedule and routine. If a student follows the rules and the daily schedule, he earns points which generate rewards to be used in the Canteen each week.
