Additionally, he collaborated with the physical therapist, adaptive PE teacher, regular PE teacher, and the LSP support staff. He built strong relationships with both the staff and the students and was a strong asset to the classroom.

Stephen gives special thanks to all those who helped him get this position and meet his goals this year.
