We want Christmas and holiday pictures!!

I hope everyone had a great holiday season so far, enjoying lots of good food, special times with family, and miles of smiles from our kids! 

We’d like to see some of your holiday pictures, be it from Thanksgiving or any of the December holidays.  Email them to DownSyndromeStC@gmail.com and we’ll have a special Superstar Parade—Holiday Edition.  It will be fun to see how everyone celebrated and especially how the kids enjoyed the festivities.

Hope you can all join us for the next meeting, January 12, 2010, 6pm, at United Services St. Peters.

MPACT meeting 12/8/09

Our monthly meeting this month is an MPACT training meeting on “Special Education Law” at 6:30 pm at United Services in St. Peters.

In order to be effective when advocating for your child's education, you need to understand the laws that can impact their educational experience. This training will provide an overview of Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Family Educational Right to Privacy Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and No Child Left Behind.
