About Sawyer Merrill...
Hello and welcome to the Self-Contained Program at Casteel High! My name is Sawyer Merrill, and I have worked as a special education teacher in grades K-12 including Resource, para-professional staff and Self-Contained since 2010.
My Education and Professional Background
I hold a bachelors degree in Exercise Science and Sports Medicine with an emphasis in Education from California Lutheran University and Teaching Certificate in k-12 Cross-Category Special Education from Rio Salado. I have enjoyed my years at Weinberg Elementary and look foreword to a great year ahead here at Casteel!
My Educational Philosophy
In the Self-Contained program, your child will be receiving specialized instruction to meet his/her IEP goals. We will be using various multi-sensory and hands-on activities to review, re-teach, and/or reinforce concepts taught in the general education classroom. In addition, we will be using direct instruction to provide intensive instruction as appropriate to help maximize your child's success.
