Students may also take classes at Cameron Middle School, a public school in Framingham, with ASL interpreters provided by TLC.

The middle school years involve a period of rapid personal growth and change, as well as extensive academic progress. Our goal is to graduate middle school students who have strengthened their self-esteem, developed their personal levels of maturity, and gained academic skills, all of which will prepare them for their high school years and their lives as independent adults.
