A Tourette Syndrome Association Education Committee Presentation
Recorded November 2009

The role of the school administrator is critical in defining the way a school enables children with Tourette Syndrome (TS) to learn and thrive among their peers. The school administrator can show compelling leadership by promoting best practices, disseminating correct information about the disorder and its effects, promoting good communication between teachers, clinicians and families, and urging program planning teams to put forth creative accommodations in the classroom and school.

This audio presentation, directed to school administrators, offers information about what TS is and isn’t, how to recognize and manage and what entitlements are involved for students with Tourette Syndrome.
