Assistance League of Ventura County

Assistance League School

The school provides activities for the development of language skills, cognitive growth, fine and gross motor skills and adaptive behavior to pre-school children with learning delays.

In 1960, the chapter assumed financial control and management of Assistance League School. In 1978, the school moved to its current site in Oxnard. Annually, the school serves approximately 50 pre-school and kindergarten children, ages 3 to 6, with delays in development.

The school, a privately owned nonpublic school, is licensed by the State of California and certified by the State Department of Education. Every two years, the school has a State review of its program to ensure all practices and educational opportunities are in conformance with State policies and procedures. Such a review was completed in June, 2011. An excellent rating was given with no corrective actions required. Nine commendations were awarded to the school. Students are referred to the program from the Oxnard, Hueneme, Rio, Pleasant Valley and Ocean View school districts.

Professional staff consists of an Executive Director with a Master’s Degree in special education, a licensed speech/language pathologist, several credentialed special education teachers, aides and qualified consultants and therapists.
