On Friday, March 19, 2010, Spring Run School will host its annual Open House Event. This year, the event will occur in three separate sections.
The first section will be a brainstorming session among the entire Spring Run School staff, allowing all staff input as to how Spring Run School can enhance special education services to our students. This section will take place from 9 AM until 11 AM.
The second section will entail a luncheon with invitees including Special Education Administrators from Hunterdon and surrounding counties. Administrators will have the opportunity to meet Spring Run School staff and members of the Spring Run parent group. A menu of house salad, Chicken Francais, pasta, and dessert will be catered by the Food Service staff of CEA between 12 PM and 1 PM. Following the luncheon, invitees will be offered a tour of Spring Run School and CEA, with the opportunity to observe first-hand the variety of services offered.
The third section titled “MapQuesting the Resources”, Navigating The Options For Your Special Needs Child, is a mini-course in preparation for an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meeting taught by Susan Gentle, Spring Run School’s volunteer parent advocate. The course will be offered to parents of middle and high school students with special needs. Ms. Gentle will help parents navigate the linkages and strategies for successful IEP, Transition, and Entry to Adult Services in today’s educational economic climate. Materials and open discussion of practices and principles will be included.
The class is free and will take place during two time periods. The first class will occur between 2 and 4 PM, the second between 4 and 6 PM. Finger foods and beverages will be provided. Additionally, activities will be provided for children.
