Why Every School IEP Should Include a CTRS

We wouldn’t exclude OT or PT from a student’s support plan—so why is Recreational Therapy still missing?

Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) are designed to support the whole student, not just academic performance. Yet many IEPs focus heavily on classroom-based services while overlooking critical areas like social participation, leisure skills, self-determination, and community inclusion.
Recreational Therapy addresses these gaps directly. Led by a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS), RT supports students in developing the skills they need to engage meaningfully with peers, navigate unstructured environments, regulate emotions during social interactions, and participate confidently in school and community life.

These skills don’t just enhance quality of life—they directly impact educational outcomes. When students learn how to engage socially, manage transitions, and feel a sense of belonging, classroom participation improves, behavioral incidents decrease, and overall school engagement increases.

More school districts are beginning to recognize this connection. Some now contract specifically for CTRS services after seeing measurable improvements in peer relationships, student confidence, classroom participation, and carryover of skills beyond the school day. Recreational Therapy helps bridge the gap between academic instruction and real-world application—something many traditional school-based services are not designed to address alone.

Including RT on an IEP ensures that students aren’t just prepared to succeed in school, but equipped to participate in life beyond it. Independence doesn’t start at graduation—it’s built through intentional skill development throughout a student’s educational journey.

If your district isn’t utilizing Recreational Therapy yet, ask a simple question: Who is teaching our students how to belong outside the classroom?

Recreational therapists are experts in cultivating waves of connection, belonging, meaning, purpose, discovery, joy, and flow. Leave a heart in the comments if you agree. 🧡

In addition to Chair Yoga Monday and Friday 10:30-11:30 AM and Yoga Flow Wednesday 5:30-6:30 PM this week, Bike Blast is back!
I will be offering a beginner Bike Blast class this week in the fitness room at Town of Lebanon Parks and Recreation Department so if you have never taken a stationary bike group class before (or it’s been a long time since you joined one) this is a wonderful opportunity to get (back) in the saddle and learn basic skills. Please arrive 10 minutes before the 6:45 PM class start to get your bike adjusted to best fit you for a comfortable ride. Each cyclist controls their own resistance and speed for their own individualized level of challenge.
