OptimALL Services Partners with St. John Bosco Family of Parishes to Launch Groundbreaking Inclusive Catholic Classroom

At OptimALL Services, our mission has been clear since day one. We strive to help all students to be included in Catholic and faith-based schools and to realize their full potential. 

We’re so motivated by these principles that we made them our motto! We believe every child deserves an exceptional education, exceptional service, and the opportunity for exceptional success—regardless of their unique learning needs.

And now, we are thrilled to share groundbreaking news that brings this vision to life in a powerful new way.

OptimALL Services is proud to partner with the St. John Bosco Family of Parishes to launch the St. John Bosco Inclusive Classroom at St. Lawrence Elementary School. This is a dedicated, Catholic-centered classroom designed specifically for students with moderate to intensive needs, and it will open for the 2026-2027 school year. 

We couldn't be more excited about what’s on the horizon for one of our partner schools. 

This initiative represents a new vision for inclusive education in our Catholic schools. In this space, students with significant disabilities will be fully welcomed, supported, and integrated into the vibrant life of a thriving, faith-based learning community. Every child will have the chance to thrive academically, spiritually, and socially, surrounded by peers, teachers, and a school family rooted in Gospel values.
