As a school-based SLP who is in a district that has their first group of high school students, this was so informative. I plan to share this information with my administration as they begin to plan our high school programming. Being in a rural area, this would be a huge asset for our students.

I am curious as to how much this program’s teachings promotes masking and classism by educating students on standard American language. I understand the purposes that our society holds on these standards, however I hope that we as professionals, including speech pathologists, can find ways to also educate colleges, businesses, scholarship committees, etc. on communication differences (i.e., neurodivergent populations, culturally and linguistically diverse populations).

It was not practical. It just felt like a sales pitch for their program instead of actually teaching about language disorders and communication in middle school and high school. Presentation style was not engaging, either.

I was really looking for something I could take away and implement, but this is more of a review of a specific program that you would need training to provide. While it gave me some ideas on "what" I could target with my junior high students, it lacked detailed information on "how." The first 15 minutes offered little valuable/useful information; time that could have been used to provide thorough examples of activities.

The course effectively covered the LFS program which appears to be something that all students can benefit from. Much of what is required in high school is not needed by everyone, yet they all need to pass it. Communication is essential to every student. Maybe the content could be taught in public speaking electives.
