Empowering Students with Learning Challenges to Overcome, Achieve, and Succeed
Program Overview
"In a Class Called Special" is a comprehensive, school-based program designed to support students with learning disabilities, academic challenges, and behavioral struggles. Rooted in personal experience and research-based strategies, this program aims to provide students with the tools they need to build confidence, develop self-advocacy skills, and thrive academically and personally.
As someone who has personally navigated the challenges of learning disabilities—including dyslexia, dyscalculia, audio processing disorder, and comprehension weaknesses—I understand the frustration and discouragement that many students feel. I also know firsthand that success is possible, no matter how difficult the journey may seem. This program is designed to help students see their potential, change their mindset, and develop strategies for lifelong success.
