Workshops help STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) teachers learn strategies for students mainstreamed into their classrooms. They also benefit inclusion specialists and others working to ensure students who are deaf/hard of hearing or who have language delays are successful.
Attendees can register to receive a $100 stipend for participating. See attached flyer for additional information.
