Hello, I'm teacher Lada

About me: 

I am an Early Intervention teacher for FCSS in the FRIENDS program. I have a BA in liberal studies, an Early Childhood Credential and a MA in Special Education.  I started working in the education field as a paraeducator for 17 years and taught in the classroom for three years.  This is my third year with the FRIENDS program.  I am a mother of six and is married to my wonderful husband for 22 years. 

Message to the families: 

As an Early Intervention teacher, I believe in building relationships with my students as well as their families.  I feel that it is vital for me to support families with effective strategies and collaborate with families to create developmental goals that best fit their child’s needs.  I believe that all children regardless of their disabilities are people who love to learn therefore I want to foster that in my students and use that innate ability to bring them to their fullest potential.
