MY STORY

As a child, my parents had good friends whose son, Ronnie, would regularly come to our house while his mom ran errands. Ronnie has Downs syndrome. I loved having him around. He was kind and witty (and a little stubborn at times!).  I was fascinated with his learning and would help him read or teach him to write new words.  After we moved from the area, our families continued to stay in touch. I always enjoyed hearing what new tasks Ronnie had learned, the new words he could write, or the job he was working. I never thought Education would be my intended career, but during my senior year in high school, I found myself volunteering in an elementary school where I was placed in a class with a little girl who had Down's syndrome. From that moment on I knew what I should become....I taught Special Education for 14 years before leaving the school system to raise our three children. My career path changed when my youngest, Eden, was diagnosed with ADHD. After struggling with the process of obtaining a 504 Plan for her and seeing the amazing progress she has made, I thought, "What do other parents who aren't familiar with special education needs, plans, or terms do? Their children shouldn't be denied the ability to succeed." And I knew once again what I should become.....Ronnie, Eden, and my former students taught me that they have the ability to reach their full potentials. I want to help your child reach theirs!
