Latham Students Go Shopping

March 2, 2012

We are in the midst of doing clothing shopping!  This is a great opportunity for our students to experience different community settings, clothing stores, shoe stores, and possibly eating out afterwards. Before going on their shopping outings, students work on their shopping lists with the assistance of staff.  Our students are also learning the important skills of shopping for weather and age appropriate clothing. This is also an opportunity for them to buy items that express their personal styles.  They get to practice their learned skills by interacting with sales clerks, cashiers, and other shopping customers.  Everyone returns happy and very proud to show off their wonderful outfits.
