Disabilities Training Provided to School Employees

We are excited about disabilities awareness training we've begun in a large public school district. When the superintendent's office jumped at the opportunity to have the Cromwell Center return to their elementary schools, we arranged multiple sessions to offer training to their teachers, ed techs, cafeteria and custodial staff, and bus drivers. (We've already scheduled 21 sessions with their 3rd-5th graders making this our seventh year in the district.) More than two dozen ed techs and cafeteria staff from five schools participated in the experiential exercises and discussions designed to examine and change attitudes about people with disabilities.
