Speech/Language Pathologist

I am the "traveling" speech therapist for Erie School District. I service Life Skills classrooms at McKinley Elementary; SBLP, SELF, Erie Cyber, ALA, and Recovery Academy at the Patrick J DiPaolo Student Success Center; all medically fragile and home instruction student's. I work with students from Kindergarten to High School. I frequently have contact with the district's Assisstive Technology Speech Therapist, in case any student/families need assistance with low or high assistive tech.
