We hear so many stories from around the country of special ed programs not serving children well or – worse – putting children in danger. Few things give parents as much hope as a good school program with caring staff members who treat students with kindness and respect. Dr. Mary Joann Lang, founder, and Edward Miguel, chief operating officer, of Beacon Day School talk about the current model and future hopes for Beacon programs, including new technology, integrative education, support staff for children with medical issues, transitional needs, and the looming national crisis in adult care for individuals with autism. Dr. Lang will particularly address adult issues and explore thoughts for moving forward into a future with hope. Please visit www.beacondayschool.com.
