“I wanted to reach out to St. Joseph's to tell you how absolutely proud you should be of your former student, who is a kindergarten teacher and now coordinator of Special Education Services at our school. Today she ran a full-day PD for the entire staff on meeting the needs of students with IEPs in our school. Her resources and information were phenomenal, and each and every teacher stated that it was easily the best PD they had ever attended because they were able to feel inspired, learn from each other, have time to work together and plan, and they felt supported. She provided so much information that was pragmatic and immediately applicable to classroom practice, and she provided a part of the day where teachers participated in classroom inter-visitations and were able to learn from each other and coordinate, collaborate and share ideas. Thank you for doing such a great job with your students — the world needs more teachers and practitioners like them in our schools.”
