I teach a fantastic, diverse group of upper-elementary and middle school students with significant and multiple disabilities. My students have a range of diagnoses, including autism, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, and cortical visual impairment. Each of my students requires a lot of support to communicate, access the curriculum, and gain independence. Each of them also has unique strengths and a lot of potential to learn and grow when provided with the right tools and supports. Please help me support my students to gain skills, access their school and community environments, and experience an increased quality of life!
