Congratulations to the class of 2008! On June 10, 2008, our eighth grade class graduated during an inspirational ceremony attended by family, friends, and Wolf supporters. Each of the six students were personally recognized for their accomplishments and commended for their hard work. The graduates were encouraged and congratulated in remarks made by Jessica Robins Miller, Head of School, Mark Pelson, Board Chair, and Rosy Granoff, Director of Admissions. As is Wolf tradition, the ceremony closed with the raising of flags designed by each graduate to represent their interests and personalities. The flags will remain in the Pelson Center as an enduring tribute to their time at Wolf. We wish our graduates continued success and happiness as they transition into a new phase of their lives! To read excerpts from Jessica Robins Miller’s graduation address, wolf_graduation_address_08_v2.pdf. Special thanks! We are grateful to the Louise A. Shuster Fund of the Rhode Island Foundation for a recent grant to support professional development initiatives at the Wolf School. As an independent school, that is also certified as a Rhode Island private special education school, Wolf has an ongoing need for overall staff training and technical assistance in order to keep current with special education theory, clinical issues, standards, and practices. The Shuster Fund grant enabled our faculty to participate in specialized trainings that increased their knowledge and understanding of our complex learners. Also, the grant helped to build the Wolf School’s capacity as an educational resource for the community and strengthen its organizational expertise in special education issues and best practices.
