very parent wants their child to lead a happy life. And when parents entrust their children to us at PGCS, they have the same dreams as any other parent – hope that their child will be part of a community, have friends, and enjoy health and well-being. Fostering independence early in life lays the groundwork for adolescence and adulthood. For this reason, at PGCS we promote lifelong independence for our students. Throughout our programs, students are encouraged to take control of their lives by making simple choices that gradually become more sophisticated

as they develop skills, explore their communities, and identify their goals. With consistent opportunities to practice making choices, students develop life-long skills for self-advocacy and independence.
