Special Student Services

Special Student Services is a Durham PTSA committee that addresses the needs of diverse learners at Durham Middle School by fostering communication and awareness of special education between the school , parents and children.  This committee recognizes and promotes each child's abilities rather than their disabilities.

Special Student Services would like your help and support in establishing this new area.  Some of the programs that are currently being created are:

 

A Special Needs blog for the parents and caregivers of these amazing children to find related informative information, to ask questions and seek advice from other families, and most importantly, SUPPORT FOR ONE ANOTHER!

 

A “Special Needs” resource library in the media center for parents and students.   We are looking for your donations of new or gently used books, magazines, cd's or dvd/video's to help us create this resource area. Please contact Lisa Johnson at ljohnsonlmhj@msn.com or 770-590-0524 about your donation.

 

“Special Mornings Out” – This is a once a month gathering where you will meet with other parents or caregivers of children with disabilities and share your stories and triumphs.
