           A Conversation about Special Education

                                                     (DVD Presentation)

On December 13th, the Resource Association in Special Education in District 102 (RAiSE) will be showing the DVD presentation Beyond F.A.T. City: A Look Back, a Look Ahead – A Conversation about Special Education, which is a powerful look into the lives of children with learning disabilities and anxiety created for both educators and parents.  

F.A.T. - frustration, anxiety, tension - are three all-too-familiar feelings for children with learning disabilities (LD). In this program, Richard D. Lavoie, creator of the original F.A.T. City Workshop, reviews the major trends and issues in the field of learning disabilities since the late 1980s and the challenges ahead for educators and parents of children with LD.  (PBS Distribution)
