with Dr. Lisa White
Virtual
Event Info
Summit Center is proud to present a series of webinars from our team of professionals, speaking on topics important to our families.
Dr. Lisa White, licensed psychologist, will speak on “School Daze: Finding the Right Educational Environment for Your 2e Child” on Wednesday, September 18, at 12 noon.
Learn about how to find the best educational environment for your 2e child, whether that be a public, independent, 1-1, or alternative school option. Dr. White will discuss what factors are important in choosing a school (the academics might be the least of it!), what questions to ask to find out whether a school could be a good fit, the fallacy of the “perfect” school, and how to determine if a school experience is a success or not working. Additionally, this presentation will cover how to best position your child in the application process, and being honest about your child’s needs while still letting them shine as an applicant.
FREE. Recordings will be available after the event for a fee.
