I also function as a member of the Child Study Team.
Speech Therapy Program
Fall 2008
Students that meet the criteria for eligibility in the Speech Program have an Individual Educational Plan. This IEP is comprised of goals and objectives in language, articulation, fluency or voice. Student, parents and teachers' are all involved in the carryover process. Each student has a speech notebook for homework assignments.
Every student works to improve their speech and language skills by practicing during the speech sessions, in the classroom and at home with family members.
All of the students are learning to become better communicators!
