		<description><![CDATA[Continuing from Part 1 of my post&#8230; Prior to our pre-&#8221;transition meeting&#8221; meeting last month, I knew very little about the districts preschool program. Initially, we encountered a bit of resistance because the districts administrators insisted that we couldn&#8217;t schedule a meeting until 60 days before Lyra&#8217;s 3rd birthday. However, I knew that was not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So&#8230; I finally got that observation at Lyra&#8217;s preschool&#8230;just 4 days before she was scheduled to begin her evaluation period. The afternoon preschool class goes from 12:30PM to 3:30PM and I stayed and observed for most of that time. I think it went well overall. Lyra&#8217;s teachers have been really nice and very open and [...]]]></description>

This concept is known as &#8220;dual-media.&#8221; I must admit, when Lyra was a baby, and we were still coming to terms with her condition, the LAST thing I wanted to hear was someone telling me that Lyra might need [...]]]></description>
