Summit Academy Gets A Playground!

My son’s school finally has a playground! This is a wonderful thing for the children. And it all came about because of one teacher’s tenacity and persistence, and was paid for with 100% donations (no grants)!

Thank you WKBN/WYTV for answering my call, and giving this great day for our school some media coverage.
Love this station!

Please help us out folks.  My son’s school is Summit Academy, which is designed to educate kids with Asperger Syndrome, high-functioning Autism, ADHD and related disorders. 

Thanks so much!

Back to School!

Sept 8 is the first day of school here. My son is really looking forward to it. These long summer vacations aren’t good for kids with his disorders. It’ll take him a few weeks at the very least to get back into the swing of things.

I’m glad he’s going back, to get him back into a routine if nothing else. It’s hard to keep a kid, any kid, on a routine during the summer.

He’ll be returning to Summit Academy for alternative learners. They have a new director, and he has a new teacher, this year.
Ought to be fun, since he hates change so bad. Keeping my fingers crossed and saying some prayers!
