I wanted to talk about is being the best advocate you can be for your child. This has been a role that I have stepped into quite easily. I guess I come off like a mama bear when it comes Beau and what is in his best interest as a special needs child. I have attached a link (please click on School for Sale) to a news story that I was a part of (I contacted the media) with regard to a situation happening here in Waterloo and the school that Beau attends. The actual building is owned by the Waterloo School District but it is leased by the AEA 267. It's quite long and difficult to explain it all but you can get the general idea by listening to the news story. Let's just say they haven't heard the last of me. It aired last night and I have received numerous phone calls today of people in support of my efforts and one from a director with the Waterloo School District. It tells me Waterloo School District saw it - that makes my day :) Never be afraid to stand up, be heard and advocate!
