Description

This week, Chris and Christine discuss how Christian schools can better educate students with learning disabilities. They are joined by Karla Phillips-Krivickas, Founder of the Arizona Inclusion Network and Think Inclusion. With over 20 years of experience in state and federal policy, Karla uses her unique perspective to advise education leaders on sound policy and best practices to advance academic achievement for all students, including those with disabilities. Karla is the proud mother of a 19-year-old son and a 15-year daughter with Down Syndrome, both with learning disabilities.Throughout their discussion with Karla, Chris and Christine find that learning disabilities come in many different forms, and unfortunately, many students go undiagnosed for years. On the bright side, educating students with disabilities isn't as difficult as some make it out to be. By simply changing their approach and teaching strategies, countless private schools could increase their capacity and better serve all students. Follow Karla and AZ Inclusion Network on Twitter.

The one-size-fits-all approach to education in America is failing our kids. You can escape your government-assigned school. You can change your child’s future, and together we can create a better future for education in America. As parents, we must stand up and demand a solution before it’s too late. Join Christine and Chris Stigall on Making The Leap. A show for the parents who make their own decisions, a community for those who want to create a better future for our children. We’re going to discuss how we can all improve as parents and how we can make better education decisions. We’ll bring on society experts, educators, legislators, psychologists, and parents like you and me; we’ll uncover how we got here and lay the groundwork for how we can improve ourselves and our children's future.Please make sure to subscribe to the show here in your podcast player so you don’t miss our first episodes.
