About me
As a student with ADHD, mental health difficulties and behavioral issues, Rita experienced the impact a dedicated professional could make. She obtained a BSc/BEd with a Special Education Specialization, and now teaches at a Junior High Behavioral Outreach program.
Rita’s passion is connecting with tough kids and tough parents. Rita presents to large groups within her division and across the province throughout the year, and is known for providing strategies-focused PD with humor and a great story-telling style. This presentation is part of a 7 part webinar series that Rita and the Student Services team in Golden Hills created to provide PD for teachers and Support Staff during the pandemic.
