Welcome to Union Memorial School's Special Education and Speech-Language Program! Judy Lilley, our Special Educator, Judy Hillis, our Speech-Language Pathologist, and Janet Cormier, our Special Education Reading Teacher, work with many students in grades K-2.
 

 
Hi.  My name is Judy Lilley. I work with students in the areas of reading, writing, math, and behavior. I work with classroom teachers and parents to provide evaluations and implementation of Individual Education Plans (IEP's). Most students work in the
classroom on their individualized goals with modifications in the regular curriculum. Others have a more intensive program requiring individualized workspaces with one-to-one adult assistance. I work closely with outside agencies and consultants to help address the diverse needs of our students at Union Memorial School.

 

 

My name is Judy Hillis.  I work with students in the areas of oral language, articulation, fluency, voice and hearing. Some students work on goals in their Individual Educations Plan (IEP's), while many others are working on their sound pronunciation through the Speech Improvement Program. I provide screening, diagnostic, consultative, and therapeutic services to students and am a member of the UMS Educational Support Team.

                                                                                                                     

 

Hi.  I'm Janet Cormier.  I have been teaching reading at UMS for 8+ years.  Working with students in the areas of reading and writing, my time with students gives them gives them extra practice with the skills they are learning in their classrooms.  I provide students with direct, explicit instruction in decoding (breaking apart sounds in order to spell words), fluency, comprehension, and reading strategies (things to try when they encounter a tricky word). Working closely with classroom teachers to make sure we are meeting the individual needs of students is a favorite part of my day.  In addition to carrying out Individual Educational Plans for our students, I am also involved in writing or updating IEP’s, making sure they reflect our students’ present needs.  Colchester has been my home for 13 years. My husband Steve and I have 3 sons who have all gone through the Colchester schools.
