  • Way back in 1981 I did my student teaching at The Heathcote School and had such a wonderful experience! I was then hired part-time to work with Jo Sopis, Ph.d. She had just completed a study on learning disabilities and began a program with the kindergarten students. I assisted her on some testing and remediation techniques, quite interesting. I was interested in re-reading that research but don't know where I would acquire that. If the school could be of any help I'd greatly appreciate it. I am now a second grade teacher in Miami, Florida and have been teaching for 25yrs. Heathcote was such a model school, I will always remember it!
