The Classical Academies’ Transition Partnership Program (TPP) helps students with special needs transition from high school to adulthood by supporting them as they explore employment, continuing education, and independent living. TPP Specialist Melissa Hilbig and Instructor Deb Kissner share how students can identify their strengths, connect with opportunities, and gain the skills, strategies, and resources needed for success. The program focuses on normalizing disabilities to promote independence, empowerment, and inclusion. While designed for students with IEPs or 504 plans, TPP builds valuable skills such as self-advocacy, collaboration, and confidence that benefit all learners.
