Hello and welcome to my webpage!  I am in my 18th year teaching special education students and my 16th year in NLSD. My goal is to make my classroom a place where students feel  comfortable in their education, and their environment. Each year working with my students rewards me everyday.

Please contact me through my school email, tscanlon@nlsd122.org if you have questions or concerns or you can call me at 815-462-2870.
