Matt Ferguson, Kori McQuillin, Gail Mason - All three of these therapists put in the extra effort to transition their old school districts, students, and myself into the new school year. They made time in their busy schedules to meet me at their old districts, showed me around, introduced me to staff, and assisted with the "passing of the torch." I appreciate their time, effort, and knowledge!!! If I didn't say it enough - Thanks again guys!! :).
Megan Kopenhoffer for your assistance and knowledge as I know you are transitioning too!
Molly Knepley for your knowledge, assistance, and encouragement as well! :)
To all the rest of the Therapy staff that I didn't mention!! I'm so blessed to be part of a supportive, knowledgeable, and caring team. Thank you! :)
