I am looking forward to working with your children this year. Speech-Language services in the school setting works to help children be successful communicators in the classroom environment.

This includes: properly articulating sounds so speech is easier to understand, improving receptive/expressive language skills to help increase understanding of instruction and better express thoughts and ideas, and increasing fluent speech so speech is smoother and easier to understand.  

Instruction is geared towards those skills that can best help your student participate in their classroom environment. Services may be provided in the child's classroom or in the speech room based on what type of service best meets the needs of each individual child.

If you are concerned about your child's speech contact your child's teacher to see if a speech referral is needed.
