Welcome to the web site for the Pre School Program for Children with Disabilities. Here you will find the information about the class and staff.

My name is Lara Manasse. I am a Hallsville graduate and enjoyed my time there. From there I entered Kilgore College. I finished up at the University of Texas @ Tyler. I began my education career with ECI - Early Childhood Intervention. After getting lots of hands on experience working in the homes of children with disabilities, I had the desire to work in the school system. Since then I have taught in Gladewater and now Pine Tree ISD. I enjoy teaching children with disabilities. Most of the time I learn so much from them.

Also there are 4 assistants in the classroom. They are extremely valuable to me and this class. They are truly my "go to" ladies. I appreciate all they do in making the classroom flow.
