Light — font-weight: 300; There was a ship that sailed all on the lowland sea And the name of the ship was the Golden Vanity And we feared she would be taken by the Spanish enemy As she sailed upon the lowland, lowland, lowland Sailed upon the lowland sea.

Iconography

Home page icons

*Note: These icons are 220px wide by 220px tall, but they need to be displayed at 110px by 110px. They are twice the pixel density (twice as big) so that they will look sharp on computers and devices that have a higher resolution.

Extra content icons

Icon representing five minutes
Icon representing fifteen minutes
Icon representing thirty minutes

*Note: These icons are 220px wide by 220px tall, but they need to be displayed at 110px by 110px. Either add class="xtra-icon" to the image tag, or assign a width of 110px. They are twice the pixel density (twice as big) so that they will look sharp on computers and devices that have a higher resolution.

Make your own – gradient background circles with images

*Note: Some free icons from the Web are provided in the files: \images\icons\myo\. You can also search the Web for other free icons. Best to use square icons.

VCU-ACE implements a school division-wide systems change process to result in improved services at every level of the school division for students with ASD and similar educational needs. The VCU-ACE model of school division-wide technical assistance is the provision of technical assistance to top-level directors and administrators to improve their understanding of the implementation of evidence based practices for students with ASD across the age range, as well as implementation of direct modeling and coaching to classroom teachers, therapists, and paraprofessionals.

School division-wide technical assistance is provided to selected school divisions through a competitive application process. School divisions selected to participate will receive two to three days a week of embedded technical assistance from VCU-ACE Technical Assistance Associates for three years.

Technical Assistance is individualized and is driven by the needs of the school division. Upon initiation of services by VCU-ACE, Technical Assistance Associates assist selected school divisions in completing a self-assessment and developing a Services Improvement Plan. These plans provide data based targets and define the exact technical assistance and training activities that will take place in the division. These plans provide a coordinated approach to division-wide systems change, professional development, coaching, mentoring, and services improvement. VCU-ACE Technical Assistance Associates guide practice and facilitate implementation of the plan. In addition, Technical Assistance Associates collect data and revise technical assistance efforts based on ongoing data based decision-making.
