We proudly celebrated Speech Pathologist Appreciation Day by shining a spotlight on three incredible professionals who are making a world of difference in our preschool community: Ms. Casey, Ms. Liz, and Ms. Tijana.
These dedicated speech-language pathologists work tirelessly with our youngest learners, helping them discover their voices and build the foundation for confident communication. Whether guiding children through their first spoken words or supporting them with Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices, their work opens doors and hearts.
Ms. Casey, Ms. Liz, and Ms. Tijana bring compassion, creativity, and expertise into every session. From playful sounds using a microphone and silly voices to flipping pretend pancakes, they help each child express themselves in their own unique way. Thanks to their care and commitment, our students are not just learning to speak, they’re learning to be heard.
Here's what the ELC staff is saying about Ms. Casey, Ms. Liz and Ms. Tijana:
"Casey is always there to give a helping hand to all. She is creating brilliant supports to ensure every child has a voice in the classroom!"
"Liz is so passionate about helping students communicate and she works hard to pass on her knowledge and skills to others. Liz is supportive of her coworkers and helps to bring a fresh perspective to her team. We are so incredibly lucky to have her with us at the ELC!"
"Tijana is always trying to support every one in the ELC - teachers, paras, students and families. I admire her commitment to best practices!"
We thank this incredible trio for helping our children find their voice.
