Hello!
My name is April Welbes. I am so grateful for the opportunity to be the HASD Family Engagement Liaison! My husband and I have three children in the district - one child with special needs. We are so fortunate to have such supportive and caring HASD staff who have helped guide us through the IEP process; all while ensuring inclusion in the classroom for our child.
From my own personal experiences, I have learned that raising a child with special needs does not come with a manual. There is no "How To" guide. No child is the same and every child deserves to learn in an atmosphere that helps them grow! Being a special needs parent can feel lonely and the unknowns can oftentimes seem overwhelming but the care that HASD staff has shown us throughout our time in the district is what has gotten us through.
It is my mission to give back the support I've received from over the years to parents, children and their teachers. My goal is to bridge any gap that may exist between parents and educators by helping provide resources to better serve your children. Communication is key and I am here to help parents feel safe and heard as they navigate their way through special needs.
Please feel free to contact me with any thoughts, concerns or issues you may have and I will do my best to guide you in the direction that’s best for you and your family!
