Transitioning Your Student with Dyslexia to High School

This webinar will be led by dyslexic and ADHD educator and vice principal Michael Karras who will discuss how to help your student with dyslexia transition to high school. This will be directed at students in grades 6 through to grade 8 and their families.


Karras struggled with dyslexia and ADHD throughout his education. He did not have the proper support or knowledgeable educators who understood how to help him, making it difficult for him to learn and enjoy school. With the support of his mother, Karras managed to get access to a pilot program at the Learning Disability Association of Saskatchewan. Here, he gained new tools and support for his specific learning challenges. Due to his personal journey and experience of dealing with learning disabilities, Karras was motivated to assist children who struggle with learning disabilities.
