Thank you @thecollegespy. We need to tell our students this over and over as we start applying to these selective schools.

College admissions is not fair. Just because you are a wonderful person, excellent student, involved community member, strong test taker and hard worker does not mean you will get accepted to the school of your choice. It does mean you are going to be a successful person.

The Common Data Set (which can be found on a college’s website) will tell you which high school courses the college requires and recommends. #collegeadmissions #collegebound #parentsofteens

We are counting on you to be change makers for the good.

March is National Reading Month! To LDA, National Reading Month holds a special significance, because 75-80% of individuals with learning disabilities have basic deficits in language and reading. This month, we're working to promote literacy for all individuals!

Friendly reminder that our 58th Annual Conference portal is still open until March 7th, so registrants can see any session from the conference that they missed, or rewatch sessions they've already viewed for a week. Thank you to everyone who attended! #LDACON2021
