Parent Information Luncheon at Lower School

For the second year, parents were invited to attend a buffet luncheon held in the Wilson cafeteria to learn about the special strategies that supplement the lower school curriculum. Parents circulated about the room listening to 10-minute presentations on Benchmark, Project Read: Report Form, Orton-Gillingham methods, Visualizing and Verbalizing, Read Naturally, Assistive Technology, the Social Communication Program and Behavior Management. Even though these sessions were brief, encapsulated snapshots of programs that are used throughout the year and are interwoven throughout the curriculum, the parents all came away with an appreciation of the multitude of approaches used by Craig teachers to capture the learning potential of each student.
