Achondroplasia and School Environment   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #71 of 184 |
My name is Sara and I am an occupational therapist at an elementary
school in the Northeast. I have just aquired a 4 year old boy with
Achondroplasia and am trying to cover all of the bases to make his
transition to our school an easy one. I am writing to anyone who has
experienced the elementary school environment first hand to
determine what you found to be the most hindering/helpful. We are
currently planning environmental modifications and adaptations. At
this time he is enrolled in pre-school where his stature is not an
issue, however, in the elementary school there are many obstacles to
be overcome. I would enjoy hearing from anyone with thoughts on this
subject!! Thank you in advance for your time :)
