Delaney Special Education Reading broadens the mind and allows you to go on wonderful journeys. There is no require reading from the special education department, but we would like to encourage you to read anytime you have a chance. Read magazines of interest, the newspaper, roadside signs or pick up a chapter book that will take you on a wonderful adventure. Remember to use context clues and never be afraid to ask someone for help.
