    To Danielle Mowery,

    Thank you so much for your comment. We look forward to hearing about your association at the next CCSE meeting. I have put the link to the Intl. Dyslexia Association (NY Branch) on our Resource List. Thank you for the information!

    Everyone knows someone with dyslexia. Growing up, my brother struggled with it. My parents put many long hours into helping him achieve his academic dreams. I am sure your site will help some of our parents. Thank you for your continuing advocacy.

    -Kirsten Rorke, Parent Coordinator
