Lori Robbins, Adaptive Physical Education Teacher, PS 37Q The Cynthia Jenkins School

I would like to thank this teacher for extending her time past the school walls and involving my special needs child in Special Education activities around the city and upstate. My daughter has been exposed to all the sporting activities and as been an active participant in The Special Education Olympics. Mrs. Robbins has given up countless weekend hours of her own time to support my daughter in all of the sporting events that she is eligible for. My daughter has blossomed socially and I have met so many contacts that can enhance my daughter's academic life and her independence as she matures. I can never give enough thanks and praise to teachers who go outside the box to enhance a child's development. She has truly given all of herself and my child has reaped the benefits.
