Vincent Varrassi was our guest speaker last night at
Chapel Hill-Chauncy High School, Wiltham, MA Barn Theater. Mr. Varrassi is the Head Learning
Specialist at Fairleigh Dickinson University and the
Campus Director at the University’s Regional Center for
College Students with Learning Disabilities.
His topic, “Planning for College Success for Students
with Learning Disabilities,” was timely and relevant to
some of
Chapel Hill-Chauncy High School's parents and students. He addressed the
transition to college for those students who need
support, the fate of the 504 plan and IEP in college,
and the levels of support offered at various institutes
of higher learning. A parent who attended stated, "He
was very informative, insightful, and entertaining."

well as at Conferences sponsored by NJ AHEAD, The NJ
