Hello! My name is Tara McCarney and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to be part of the LIIPS family! I have been teaching Special Education since 2005 and love what I do.   I attended Dowling College where I earned my Masters in Childhood Education Grades 1-6 and Students with Disabilities Grades 1-6.  Subsequently, I then earned my extensions in B-2 and 7-12.   When I am not working,  I am spending time with my husband, three children, and our dog.    I am looking forward to working with you!

Educators in this course will examine styles of methods for communicating with families.  This class will help educators examine the different types of communication platforms educators can use to engage parents to achieve their support in the education process.  Suitable for all Educator or Service Provider, K – 12
