Specifications include, but are not limited to: As a representative of Behavior Self Inc. dba Lodestone Academy, services are requested to provide specialized behavior analytic educational services to the School District of Osceola County (SDOC). The present letter is to confirm that Lodestone Academy is the sole provider to provide the specialization and care of behavior analytic and educational services that no other organization can provide. Lodestone Academy provides educational services with intense and sophisticated interventions that take care to promote the dignity and well-being of all students in our care. We ensure that we utilize the least-restrictive procedures to teach our students to independently manage stressful situations. Successful implementation of these techniques further promotes academic and social learning. Where other organizations may see challenging behavior as problematic, Lodestone Academy sees these behaviors as an opportunity to provide our students with new ways to enrich their lives. We have had an impeccable relationship with SDOC since 2019 and have provided services to multiple students during that time. Our primary goal is to teach all SDOC students in our care to prepare them to successfully return to their assigned school. Therefore, the primary objective of Lodestone Academy is to eventually provide SDOC with no basis to further continue contractual obligations with Lodestone Academy. In that regard, we look at the satisfaction of multiple stakeholders – SDOC, the student, the student’s caregivers, and taxpayers of Osceola County. Since we became a vendor for SDOC, we have strived to provide the highest quality services for SDOC students in our care. We will always ensure we provide services that conform to the exemplary quality and standards SDOC constantly maintains. Lodestone Academy understands the importance of a quality education provided in an enriched environment. We hold the same values as SDOC and look to continue the privilege of the education of students with the most significant educational and social needs.
