Embrace the Blessing
You didn't choose this road — but here you are, walking it the best you can. Some days are breathtaking. Some days are brutal. And most days you just need to know someone else understands. That's exactly what Embrace the Blessing is for. I'm Sandy Deppisch, and for 24 years I've been walking this road alongside my son Josiah, a young adult with Down syndrome, nonspeaking Autism, and ADHD. Every week we gather — real parents, real stories, real encouragement. Let's walk the road less traveled together.

ETB 21: Ecologist School - Houston: An Outdoor Learning Community with Jennifer Fetter-Mathys
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode I talk with Jennifer Fetter-Matthys about Ecologist School - Houston, an engaging outdoor learning community that encourages children and families to get out in nature.
Students learn about Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math, Outdoor Skills, Volunteerism and Leadership through hands-on, immersive lessons focused on nature.
With a bachelor’s degree in psychology, multiple years teaching K-5, and experience working with exceptionalities, Jennifer's great at modifying and differentiating activities to meet individual needs . She has experience with autism and ABA and welcomes children with special needs.
In addition to part time and full time outdoor events for students in K through 5th grade, Jennifer also offers an after school program, special events, camps, workshops and birthday parties. Ecologist School-Houston workshops can be tailored for scouts, youth, family groups, service projects and any other organization.
