Special Education Program at Shippensburg University

Special Education Program at Shippensburg University Dr. David Bateman
Dr. Tom Gibbon
Dr. Chris Schwilk The special education program at Shippensburg University is working to meet the needs of a changing society.

The program, an integral part of the Department of Educational Leadership and Special Education, has been designed to conform to the Special Education Standards of the Pennsylvania Department of Education, National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), and the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC). The faculty are highly sensitive to the impact of cultural diversity on the g

rowth and development of children. While these factors are important in the development of curriculum in any educational program, they are especially critical in the educational planning for students with disabilities. The curriculum consistently demands the critical examination by students of the assumptions, both implicit and explicit, made in the selection and use of measurement instruments and instructional procedures and materials for any particular child.

Muscular Dystrophy Association is seeking interested individuals in a summer camp opportunity!

Help change lives and create hope for children living with
muscle-debilitating diseases. Sign up today, and prepare to be inspired!
As part of MDA’s mission to improve the lives of kids with muscular dystrophy and related life-threatening diseases, MDA’s summer camp program for kids ages 6-17 is offered at no cost to families. More than 3,800 kids attend nearly 75 weeklong MDA summer camps each year. With your help, kids create lifelong friendships, build self-confidence and develop independence. Our one-of-a-kind camps provide a life-changing experience for all who attend. Children living with neuromuscular diseases face many unique challenges. As their muscles progressively get weaker, these children often lose basic functions such as walking, dressing, eating, talking or even breathing. In many cases, these diseases can be life-threatening, and some children may require 24-hour care from parents or another caregiver. MDA relies on the support and dedication of volunteer counselors who are
by campers’ sides day and night so that they can do all the fun activities that summer camp offers. Counselors serve as a “buddy” for the week and participate in activities with the campers. They push wheelchairs, lift and transfer youngsters and provide assistance with daily living activities as needed.
