“When we give support or allow for accommodations for our kids that have special needs, it's not cheating. It is helping them to show you what they know and it's helping them to take in the information in a way that they can access more easily. It's just like when we see a person in a wheelchair; we don't think they're cheating by using the ramp to get into the building. We need to help our kids to get out of the mindset that they’re cheating or that their grade has less value because they use a calculator.” — Krisa Winn
