Personal Background:
I am the mother of 5 children, 2 with learning disabilities, and the
grandmother of 7 beautiful grandchildren.
My job, and my students, have been a great resource to me as a parent.
It is my philosophy that we, parents and teachers, must never allow
any student to be less than successful due to a disability. It is our
duty to help them to learn ways to compensate for any disability and to
do all that they are capable of doing, experiencing success, and pride,
in their educational accomplishments and in moving towards gaining more
independence.
The class mission is to facilitate the learning of techniques and strategies
which will enable students to compensate for special learning needs, and
make it possible for them to become life-long learners, and productive
citizens.
