Episode 147: Wendy Cox Blair - The Arbor School - "Going Back To School"
Description
Wendy Cox Blair, the CEO for The Arbor School stopped by the GRP Studios for Episode 147 on the Check Your Six Podcast. The Arbor School is doing some FANTASTIC things here in Central Florida helping kids with developmental challenges such as ADD, ADHD, Autism and the like. We talked about how The Arbor School not only teaches them the basic school studies but also helps them develop their problem solving skills, creating schedules for single tasks that helps them focus on one thing at a time. We talked about bullying, what The Arbor School does in cases with students that continue that behavior. How they engage the students outside the school to give them a "normal' life experience. Talked about the running club, their first 5K, the golf club and the things that the students create and sell to help support the school. Shout out also to Tavo Mendez with Rock & Brews in Oviedo and the entire Rock & Brews corporate community that uses the name badges that The Arbor School creates in ALL of their locations. This really is a great place for kids facing those challenges.
