I have been teaching in Bay Shore for 19 years, and have been teaching an inclusion class for the past 7 years. The challenges faced daily outside of school have a tremendous impact on the learning process and progress for many students in our district. Having the tools in school to help make learning fun and achievable to all is extremely important. We strive to be able to even the educational playing field for students in our classrooms so that they are continuously excited to come to school and work hard each and every day.
