Today, we're shouting out Pamia Coleman, parent of a student at Emlen School. Ms. Coleman is working hard every day to make sure her son's digital learning envi...ronment is comfortable and fun. She monitors his NovaChat speech device and has set up a mouse to make sure he has the tools he needs to succeed. They take breaks to move around and go outside to get fresh air and sunlight. She encourages other families to do the same and to keep extending patience and understanding towards their children. Keep up the great work, Ms. Coleman, and every other family working to support their child's education every day! #FamilyEngagementMonth #PHLed
