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, a Special Educator here at UMS. I work with students in the area of reading.
My time with students gives
them extra practice with the skills they are learning in their classrooms as
well as working on their goals set up in their Individual Educational Plan.
Working closely with classroom teachers to make
sure we are meeting the individual needs of each student is a favorite part of my
day. I really get to know the student in a well
rounded way by keeping in touch with their classroom teacher. In addition to carrying out
Individual Educational Plans for our students, I am also involved in
assessments, writing or
updating IEPs.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding your child's learning please feel free to call us directly at 264-5952.
