Meet Maureen Hogan – Elementary Teacher
Developmentally delayed class
Carleton Heights Public School, Ottawa
Ottawa-Carleton District School Board
Ms. Hogan leads the Developmentally Delayed class at Carleton Heights Public School in Ottawa. Colleagues call her arrival a transformational turning point for the class. Parents see it as a turning point for their families. Ms. Hogan helps students acquire daily living skills beyond academics. The tasks her students master under her guidance bring them a step closer to maximizing their independence. Integrating the class with the rest of the student body has become Ms. Hogan’s mission. Since her arrival at Carleton Heights, her students have joined in public-speaking contests, track and field and, as a class, in talent shows, holiday concerts and field trips. It is a lesson in diversity for the entire school.
