  Optional Book Study Group: Eye Can Write

  Jonathan Bryan, author of Eye Can Write, has severe cerebral palsy, a condition that makes him incapable of speech or voluntary movement. He was locked inside his own mind, aware of the outside world but unable to fully communicate with his disability until he found a way by using his eyes to laboriously choose individual letters, and through this make his thoughts known. This is a powerful book from an incredible young writer whose writing ability defies age or physical disability-a truly inspirational figure!

  Optional Book Study Group
  Each participant will read the selected book on their own time, reflect on questions related to the book, and participate in a face-to-face meeting with other school health professionals who have read the same book. This course aims to improve the practice of school health professionals across the state of Idaho and advance school health as a whole.
