We’re honored to have our staff attending the National CASE (Council of Administrators of Special Education) conference, an essential branch of the CEC (Council for Exceptional Children). This gathering is a pivotal opportunity for us to immerse ourselves in the national landscape of special education, explore innovative best practices, and strengthen our commitment to supporting children with IEPs across our region.
By learning from leaders and experts in the field, we're better equipped to empower our educators, enrich our programs, and ensure every child receives the exceptional support they deserve. 🤝✨

Veterans Day, originally known as Armistice Day, celebrated the end of World War I on Nov. 11, 1918. It honored WWI veterans and recognized the Germans' armistice, or call for peace, on the "eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month."
After World War II and the Korean War, veterans service organizations urged the U.S. Congress to amend the holiday to be more inclusive of all veterans. Thus, Veterans Day was officially born in 1954 to honor all American veterans, past and present. President Dwight D. Eisenhower officially changed the name.
