Talking with Technology

October is the official Communication Awareness month, but Communication Awareness at 麻豆社 is EVERY month. We share a location with North Elementary School in Hillsborough and our students attend classes and events with North students and staff.  Recently two of our students, who are on the North School Student Council, gave a presentation to the entire student body on 鈥淗ow We Communicate鈥 that was an overwhelming success. North students learned more about Ariany and Maddie personally,  as well as their use of augmentative and alternative communication systems.  Check out a recap of this event!
