Hello!
I hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of summer! We are hoping for some more sun, and less rain as the summer goes on. We are having lots of fun at SAGE as we are right in the middle of Spring/Summer Term!
I wanted to send a note about some changes that will be happening with SAGE over the next couple of months. I have accepted a job with the NYSED Office of Special Education Midwest Regional Partnership to assist in training and supporting special educators in districts all over mid west New York. You can find me anywhere on I-90 as I will be between Buffalo, Red Creek, all the way down to Dundee! It is a wonderful opportunity that I am excited to begin in August. SAGE will still be a priority for me, but it will be a part time role now vs. a full time role.
SAGE will still be open and offering classes, but with limited days/times as we make this transition. Just to be clear - SAGE is not going anywhere - we have a wonderful staff that will help run the center while I am not around, and I will still be teaching select classes throughout the week!
Beginning August 1, 2024 we will no longer be offering 1:1 sessions for social skills, executive functioning or Best Me! Classes, and our focus will be completely turned to group classes. I understand that this is frustrating for families who have been on the waitlist, and I apologize for that. We believe that this is the right next step for us as an agency. If you have been on the waitlist for these individual sessions, we encourage you to check out the group classes, or check out the following centers that also specialize in social skills and/or executive functioning:
-AutismUp
-Center for Social Intelligences
-Camp Puzzle Piece
-Gigi’s Playhouse
These are just a few of the area resources.
I also encourage families to look into your insurance company about mental health professionals who also focus on these topics.
Fall term will be September 9, 2024 - December 6, 2024 this coming fall, and registration will open in July. Make sure you’re on our email list to be the first to know about classes!
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to give us a phone call to chat further at 585-347-4080.
Thank you for your continued support!
Sincerely,
Emily Inguaggiato (Carpenter)
