Celebrating SLPs!!!
Celebrating SLPs!!!
Last Thursday was Speech Language Pathologist Day. While we celebrated it on our social media platforms, I neglected to include it in last week's Monday Morning Message. I include it today to celebrate and express my sincerest apologies to our Speech Language Pathologists who do so much for so many of our students.
