Welcome

 

inthisclass 

 The self contained class at LMS is also called the community based classroom (CBC). This program is for students with disabilities who are significantly below grade level. It is designed to provide individualized instruction based on a child's IEP goals and current performance levels. The structure of the classroom provides small group and one on one instruction that is so vital to the success of these students. 

 

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me.

I began teaching in January of 2014 at Magnolia School in Horn Lake, Mississippi.  I then taught a self-contained behavior class at Lewisburg Elementary. 

I began teaching at LMS in August of 2015. I have taught inclusion, resource classes, and this year I am excited to begin my first year in the community based classroom.
