Welcome new and returning families!
I
hope that you have had a refreshing and restful summer. I would like
to welcome you to the Academic Learning Center (ALC) at Mountain View!
The ALC aims to encourage academic, social and life skills growth for
students impacted by a variety of disabilities by creating an
environment that emphasizes modified academics and life skills. We also
provide a respectful and open learning environment so that we may foster
age-appropriate social skills.
Students
will receive specialized services in academics, life skills, social
skills, organization, communication and fine and gross motor skills
through a variety of research based curriculums. This class will be a
secondary blended grade classroom, so we will have 6th, 7th and 8th
graders working together.
For
some background on me for new families, this is my eleventh year in
special education, fifth year teaching and third year teaching the
ALC. I am so excited for another fantastic year! We have an amazing
group of instructional assistants this year (Mrs. Williams, Ms. Tami and Ms. Lorie), as well as our talented
group of teachers, including Mrs. Twain (speech), Mrs. Ford (OT) and
Mrs. Johnson (APE). If you have any questions about our staff, or
myself, please feel free to ask at any time.
I'm looking forward to another great year!
P.S. Don't forget that we will be having an open house for students and families to come visit the classroom on Friday 10am-11:30am! I hope to see you then!
Mrs. Zaworski
