A Virtual Micro-School
Virtual Micro-School
I strive to meet the individual needs of each student. I also believe that learning should be fun and engaging! Therefore, this Fall, I am expanding and offering the opportunity for fifteen students to attend
Lamar's Learning Lab.
I take pride in teaching with JOY, while supporting the individual needs of my neurodivergent students!
Lamar's Learning Lab
Lamar's Place is a space where neurodivergent kiddos can learn while jumping, laughing, stimming, dancing, and spinning- WITHOUT a mask!
Lamar's Learning Lab is a safe learning space for students and their parents. It is a neuroaffirming community, that fosters the gifts and talents of neurodivergent thinkers!
Who is Lamar?
I will always remember the day that I met my first Autistic student! Lamar was a beautiful 3 year old little boy, with big brown eyes, surrounded by a facial expression of sadness and confusion.
Lamar became the inspiration and motivation, that led me to discover my passion, along with my purpose, and I am forever grateful!
