Art Educator: 2011-2013 & Summer School: 2013-2017

 Walbridge School was a non-profit elementary through high school serving students with specific learning disabilities like dyslexia, Attention Disorders, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, Anxiety or NLD/NVLD.

The mission at Walbridge School was developing a sustainable educational program that uses a comprehensive academic approach to effectively meet the needs of children with learning differences, inspiring them to reach their full potential. Unfortunately, the school recently closed.

Walbridge was a school dedicated to providing an individualized educational program in a small school environment where students realize their academic, emotional and social learning potential.  I was responsible for teaching students Art emphasizing in SEL and student-centered learning strategies. These disciplinary practices provided students the motivation and empowerment needed to feel successful at their own individual levels.

This school focused on building the students abilities in reading, writing, critical thinking strategies in all curriculums, to include art to support individual learning plans. For more information regarding this unique learning experience for children, visit: http://www.walbridgeschool.org
