Mrs. Liz Shearer
Hello! I am the Learning Disabilities Teacher Consultant (LDTC) on the PECEC/Fort Dix Child Study Team (CST). I am a veteran educator with 18 years of experience in special education. As an LDTC, I am part of the team that evaluates students who are referred to the CST to determine if specialized instruction is necessary in order for that child to succeed in school. I look closely at a child's academic and educational abilities in my learning evaluations.
I am also a case manager for the CST, allowing me to work closely with families, teachers and related service providers to support students with Individualized Educational Plans (IEPs). My background and extensive experience as a special education teacher allows for informed conversations and shared experience with the teachers I support. And as a mother of 2 young children - I aim to connect with the families I support to navigate the often overwhelming world of special education.
