After recent discussions about bullying in the local and national press, and among the ASBG Yahoo group members, we decided to open a dialogue to begin to address this important issue as it affects those students on the Autism Spectrum. At this month’s meeting, a panel of parents and professionals will discuss the impact of bullying on students with ASD. Please join us for a discussion on how to develop a plan to meet the needs of our loved ones. Our panel participants will include:
Diann Shuffett – Fayette County Public Schools
Stacey Seal – private psychologist with Dr. Myrabeth Bundy’s office in Lexington
Tracey Boyd – parent
A report from Clemson about Bullying in U.S. Schools
Bullying of Students with Disabilities Addressed in Guidance to America’s Schools
