About us:
The Next Chapter was developed to address the ongoing educational, vocational, social and communication needs of the students in the Post - Secondary Program and increase their skills in the areas of independence and self - determined behavior.
Students at the school will continue to sort books, to send to the store on a needed basis, once we are collecting donations again, working on T-shirts, buttons, customizing our shopping bags and making bookmarks and other bookstore related items.
Please stop by and visit, come and see this amazing site!
