Yesterday, Carrigan hosted members of the Visiting Scholars Program from the SCSU Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning! Their presentation was titled “What is Autism?” and it allowed for student discussion in which they explored their experiences, perceptions, and understandings of those with ASD, as well as to dispel any myths and answer any questions that students may have had regarding their peers, while also promoting positive interactions within the school community. There was an incredible dialogue between the presenters and the students! The conversations continued into the classroom with many students feeling they gained a better understanding of Autism.
Yesterday, Washington celebrated its first ‘All School’ where the entire school came to the gym! We celebrated students who earned perfect attendance for the month of September along with students who earned a certificate for Awesome Attitude, Above & Beyond, and Awesome Academics! Finally, we honored Ms. Jessica Reynolds. Ms. Reynolds, without hesitation, performed the Heimlich maneuver on a student who choked on a fruit snack. We are beyond thankful for Ms. Reynolds’ heroic action!
