Demo Project at Area Schools


Schools in the Rainy River District are being used as demonstration sites to find ways of integrating speech and language services for young children.

Ann Anderson, the public board's speech language coordinator, says they're focusing on the needs of students going from preschool to junior kindergarten.

Lonna Oster, a speech language pathologist with the Kenora – Rainy River District Preschool Speech and Language Program, has been seconded to head the project.
