If you would like to create a classroom environment that promotes success and a sense of achievement for at-risk and learning disabled learners who are placed in the regular education classroom, we have just the strategies and tips!

This training will focus on planning, implementing, and evaluating behavior management plans and academic strategies for at-risk learners. Characteristics of exceptional learners will be discussed and an abundance of strategies for modifying the curriculum for at-risk learners will be presented.

Our Mission:
We know, we believe, and we support that professional development is an intentional process, that it is ongoing, and that it is systemic. We know that it must be integrated within school improvement planning and it must focus on student improvement. It must be based on well-documented research, and it must be tailored to the needs of the participants and delivered to them at their site.
