Lavalle School
In spring of 2024, the Lavallee School Student Services team utilized the MAME Special Projects Grant to purchase an iPad, iPad case, and Proloquo2Go App. We will be using these tools to train ourselves, our teachers, and our EA’s on using the AAC devices. Lavallee School has many students using AAC and fully supporting them requires total immersion and constant modelling. In the past, the only way to learn ourselves and to model for students, meant taking their AAC device away. Now we can practice on this new iPad and model back and forth communication without taking the students’ devices away! Thanks to MAME for this opportunity. We are already planning more AAC PD for the fall!
