October is National Dyslexia Awareness Month and a group of students at OFIS participated in a special research project to help people learn more about dyslexia.  Two teams of students from Mrs. Hawk's and Mrs. McGhee's classes spent time researching public figures with dyslexia and then shared those stories in the videos below.  Kudos to all of the participating students for sharing this information!

Do you want to learn more about dyslexia? The Helping Hands organization from Olmsted Falls City Schools will be hosting the Northern Ohio Branch of the International Dyslexia Association (NOBIDA) on Monday, October 29th for a special Dyslexia Simulation simulation event.  For more information and to register for this special interactive event, please click HERE.
