Parents and Families
Dear Parents, Guardians, and Family Members,
The family page on my website is here to provide answers to frequently asked questions and resources on important topics. If you have a question for me, please complete the contact form on my homepage (non-emergencies only please!). I also would love to hear about any topics you would like to see in the future. Thanks so much! Mrs. Shirkey |
Helpful Websites
Understood.org is one of my favorite resources for families and teachers! Their website was developed in collaboration with 15 nonprofit organizations and aims to support families of children with learning and attention challenges. Their website has articles, resources, tips, group forums, and even a simulator to help families and teachers understand what it feels like to have a learning disability and or attention challenges.
