Description
Marilyn Bartlett, Ph.D., Professor, College of Education, Texas A&M University - Kingsville and Jo Anne Simon, PC, Attorney for Bartlett, President, Everyone Reading, New York, NY. We want to recognize significant contributions to the field of dyslexia and related learning disabilities with this rare opportunity to hear the personal “voices” behind this history-shaping litigation 10 years after Justice Sotomayor’s final decision. This session will provide a ten-year retrospective look at the inequity that necessitated the Bartlett case, the far-reaching impacts from their personal and professional perspectives and recent cases will be discussed.
