What this is, in plain language

A classroom-based speech, language and communication programme for autistic children ages 2½–5, built on the SCERTS approach and run by speech-language pathologists with graduate student clinicians, aimed at building communication skills while reducing behaviours that get in the way of learning.

Getting started

Contact the Early CLASS office at (972) 883-3140 to ask about enrolling; a $150 non-refundable enrolment fee secures a place before the programme starts.

What they say about themselves

Taken from the provider's own website. We have not verified the claims — the parent reviews below are the other half of the picture.

  • Early CLASS is a classroom-based speech, language and communication programme for children ages 2½ to 5 with autism and their parents, built on the SCERTS curriculum and run by speech-language pathologists assisted by graduate student clinicians.
  • Meets at Callier Dallas Monday through Thursday, 9:00 to 11:30am; the centre also runs a preverbal communication programme for toddlers 18 months to 3½ and the PALS preschool programme at Callier Richardson.
  • Costs $90 per session, which may be insurance-eligible, plus a $150 non-refundable enrolment fee due before the programme starts.
  • Discourages part-time enrolment because inconsistent attendance interferes with progress; children do not need to be potty trained, and parents are not required to stay on site during treatment.
