...It was pretty funny. Looking back. And in the moment. That moment you realize adults might not know everything. They weren’t yet called special Ed classes or special education. They were just this room you went to for a couple hours every day. This was at Academy Street, the teacher was Mrs. O’Rourke, she was a angel. I had been going there for a couple months in fourth grade when they wanted to have a meeting with my parents about my “speech impediment “. They arranged a meeting and my mom came in and as soon as my Mom spoke Mrs. O’Rourke chuckledto her self realizing it wasn’t a speech in pediment that I had , but I had an accent… Mom = Newport Dad = NYNY Add that up.... |
