"Kristen Sperling played an important role in facilitating a successful full inclusion plan for my son with Down Syndrome. Kristen guided the Gen Ed teachers in inclusion strategies specific to my son’s needs and abilities and, in doing so, played a role in the evolution of the school culture to one that embraced my child’s differences and provided him with a sense of true belonging. My son is thriving."
