Dear Parents,
Welcome back to school and to the speech and language program at Blackwell Elementary! We hope that everyone had a fun and relaxing summer. We have a very busy and exciting year ahead of us.
We are excited to get to know each of you and to get the chance to work with you and your child. We will do our best this year to ensure that each student has an effective and valuable learning experience in speech and language.
We will be sending speech folders home weekly and will also be posting important information, helpful websites, and fun activities periodically on our blog. Students will be rewarded for completing homework and for working hard during speech sessions. Please take a moment each week to review your child’s speech folder and sign when they have completed assigned work. For generalization, carry-over, and for students to receive the maximum benefits of speech and language, work at home is crucial. Do not hesitate to call or email one of us if you have any questions or concerns. We are very excited to work with you and look forward to seeing you in the near future.
A little about Laurie:
This is my 13th year as a Blackwell Bulldog! I am originally from Ohio, and hold a Master's degree in Speech Pathology from Ohio University as well as GA licensure and ASHA certification. My husband and I moved to Georgia from California in 1989, and I still miss the winters and snow! Reading and cooking are two of my hobbies. I also love the outdoors and spending time with my family. Helping Blackwell "Go Green" is another passion of mine, and I enjoy co-sposoring our student environmental club.
A little about Stephanie:
I received both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from the University of Georgia in Communication Sciences and Disorders. I hold Georgia state licensure in Speech-Language Pathology, as well as certification through the American Speech-Language Hearing Association. I have been a Speech-Language Pathologist in Cobb County for over 4 years. I am also an Autism support SLP for Cobb County. I have lived in Cobb for most of my life. When I'm not providing speech therapy, I enjoy spending time with my 2 year old son and wonderful husband. We have two loving dogs and enjoy family outings to the beach and Braves' games!
Sincerely,
Laurie Wheeler M.A., CCC-SLP and Stephanie L. Reeves, M.Ed., CCC-SLP
