School Contract Services in Upland, CA

Communication plays an important role in a student’s ability to participate in the classroom, interact with peers, express needs, and access educational opportunities. Schools may require additional speech-language support to address student needs while maintaining continuity across educational teams.

King Speech Therapy Services brings experience from both school-based and private clinical settings to these partnerships. Services are approached collaboratively, with attention to each student’s communication skills, educational environment, and individualized needs.

Speech and language needs can look very different from one student to another. Support may involve students who have difficulty producing speech sounds, understanding or using language, communicating socially, or speaking fluently.

King Speech Therapy Services has experience supporting areas that include:

• Articulation and speech sound development
• Phonological delays and disorders
• Childhood Apraxia of Speech
• Receptive and expressive language
• Pragmatic and social communication
• Fluency, including stuttering and cluttering
• Communication strategies for students with individualized needs
• IEP-related speech and language consultation

The goal is to help students develop functional communication skills that support participation both academically and socially.

Children make stronger connections when the adults supporting them can communicate effectively with one another. Our family-focused philosophy carries into school partnerships through collaboration with teachers, caregivers, and other professionals involved in a student’s development.

When appropriate to the contracted scope of service, this collaborative approach can help educational teams better understand communication needs, reinforce helpful strategies, and maintain consistency across environments.

Before founding King Speech Therapy Services, Victoria King Erb, M.S., CCC-SLP, spent six years working in school-based settings. That experience provides an understanding of the unique considerations involved when speech-language services take place within an educational environment.

Today, King Speech Therapy Services combines that perspective with a child-centered, family-focused clinical approach. The result is support that recognizes both the communication needs of the individual student and the collaborative nature of school-based services.
