Your inclusion guide
Hi, I'm April!
In 3rd grade, I had a teacher that didn't know how to deal with my gifted tendencies and would often send me out to work in the classroom that served students with intensive needs. What the teacher thought was a punishment turned into my passion!!
While teaching for 20 years, I started identifying ways to create a better school environment that would help cater to those with neurodiversities and disabilities and be better for everyone.
About 3 years ago, I decided I needed to pour 100% of my focus into building the inclusive capacities of schools and changing the future for the neurodiverse.
Today I proudly work with top schools and organizations on their inclusion practices and am a speaker among world-leading teacher conferences.
