WELCOME! My name is Lynita Ludwig and I am the Child Development Advisor (CDA) Beiseker Community School. As the CDA, I offer a planned and balanced approach to student development. Planned activities focus on developing social and emotional skills in students, with the goal of enhancing both social interactions and academic performances.
The CDA consults with staff, students, parents and, when necessary, with outside agencies. This ensures that the needs of all learners are being met. The programs are designed to provide proactive and preventative supports as well as intervention with issues which have already been identified.
The CDA works with students individually, in groups, in class presentations, such as the Free The Horses Program and The Friends Program.
