I teach 6 AMAZING special education students. These students range from Kindergarten to 1st grade. The students in my class are all diagnosed with Autism. Many of my students are nonverbal and have communication difficulties, which impacts their social and academic skills. Our school district is considered to be low income and our community has a lot of needs. This past October our town was affected by Hurricane Sandy and this impacted many children in our school, leaving some children displaced and in shelters.
