The speech-language department recognizes a need to share with parents/guardians resources that will provide information on communication and skill reinforcement.  Thank you for your home support as we work together to improve students’ communication skills.

Please view the below links for articulation (the production of speech sounds), and oral-motor development (the coordinated movements of the jaw, lips, and tongue for speech sound production),  language (rules for communication), fluency (stuttering), and auditory processing (how we use auditory information), along with strategies for skill reinforcement at home.

Visit this website periodically for updated information on other aspects of communication skill development.

Parents are cordially invited to attend the SE-PAG meetings scheduled each school year. Please click here for more information.
