Stacey started School Shop LA in 2008 after a 20-year career in education, both as an educator and educational consultant. My passion for touching children's lives began in 1993, when I worked at Project Head Start, which helped me develop an understanding of children with special needs ranging from intellectually gifted to spectrum disorders. Then, as a private preschool educator for 11 years, I watched frustrated families attempt to navigate the school selection process on their own, only to find a less than perfect educational fit. The process was made even more aggravating when the child had special needs. Each child deserves an education that allows them to flourish and realize their full potential. My goal is to identify the most suitable and appropriate educational setting for each child while minimizing the stresses and strains experienced by all parents during this process. With 20 years of experience, an extensive contact list, invaluable school administration relationships and unique knowledge of both public and private schools in and around Los Angeles, I will make your child's transition smooth and painless. I offer detailed support to parents from first contact to school placement, and beyond. I will help you navigate the plethora of options, obstacles and pitfalls in order to save time and money at a later stage, and ensure a winning combination of knowledge, experience, intuition and negotiating skills. Consequently, working with School Shop LA becomes an investment, not a gamble. I have an enviable track record of identifying schools where a child's individual strengths, emotional development, learning style and extra curricular interests are allowed to develop and flourish. Whether you need advice regarding nursery school, high school, public, private or schools dedicated to special learning requirements, I will guide, assist and coordinate your child's transition, creating a pathway to success. I am one of the few qualified, experienced and respected educational consultants in the Greater Los Angeles area, helping children of all ages and abilities to realize their full potential by way of appropriate school placement. I represent families, not schools, and take no form of commission whatsoever from any institution. Your success is my success. My whole motivation is built around changing lives, changing futures.

She is the managing partner of a three-doctor practice in La Mesa California – a suburb of San Diego. She is a Fellow and Board Member of the AAOMC, a member of the International Society of Advanced Orthokeratology and a certified Wave fitter. Prior to changing career paths for optometry, Dr. Cauchi was trained in the field of Human Behavior and Psychology. She worked as a therapist/teacher for physically and emotionally challenged children and later with Project Head Start developing programs to integrate challenged children in to the classroom. This background in psychology has provided her with unique skills to understand patient motivation, compliance and behavior. As one of the few Latina health care professionals in San Diego, she gives back to her community by participating in several mentoring programs for students from underprivileged backgrounds. She also serves as a role model and speaker promoting optometry and college attendance to high risk youth with programs hosted by UCSD, SDSU, community college, grammar and high schools.
Amzie Moore of Cleveland, Mississippi, had to fend for himself from the time he was fourteen years old. In this episode, he recalls wondering why there was such economic disparity between the white and black communities. To his young mind, there must have been something special about white people that allowed them to attain a higher standard of living than blacks. It was only after serving in Europe during WWII Moore realized this was not the case. He came home determined to work towards a better life for himself and his community. He got financing to open his own Pan-Am service station, the only one between Memphis and Vicksburg that allowed black customers to use the restrooms. And he became politically active, first with the Black and Tan Republicans and later joining the Democratic Party. He also joined the NAACP. In September of 1955, while serving as NAACP President for Bolivar County, Moore received a call from the grandfather of a boy named Emmett Till. He explains how Till’s death marked a turning point in Mississippi. Prior to the Voting Rights Act of 1964, Southern states used poll taxes and literacy tests to disenfranchise poor minority voters. Moore discusses how they worked to overcome those obstacles through the formation of the Freedom Democratic Party. Later, as leader of Project Head Start, he fought to bring affordable housing and new job opportunities to poor people in the Mississippi Delta. Moore looks back with pride at all they were able to accomplish.
#99 — How to Raise A Healthy Child In Spite of Your Doctor April 27, 2016 Guest // Sally Mendelsohn, CNM : Host // Maya Shetreat-Klein, MD Do you have a pediatrician you love? Do you even know what that could look like? In the current polarized medical climate, finding a like-minded — or even open minded — pediatrician is not always easy. But… there was one pediatrician who was willing to swim against the tide — loudly and proudly — even back in the 1970s. In this episode, homebirth midwife Sally Mendelsohn and Dr. Maya discuss Dr. Robert Mendelsohn’s “renegade” ideas, including his books How To Raise a Healthy Child In Spite of Your Doctor and Confessions of a Medical Heretic. How did Dr. Mendelsohn start on his visionary path and how was it received by the medical establishment? What were his thoughts about birth, ultrasound, breastfeeding, and vaccination? What, if any, practices and attitudes have changed since he wrote his books? Robert Mendelsohn, MD (1926-1988) was one of the first outspoken, renegade pediatricians. A graduate of University of Chicago for both his undergraduate studies as well as medical school, he went on to write numerous books including How to Raise a Healthy Child in Spite of Your Doctor, Confessions of a Medical Heretic, Male Practice: How Doctors Manipulate Women, and more. He was selected by President Johnson to lead Project Head Start’s Medical Consultation Service. He publicly questioned the mainstream attitudes about medication, parenting, birthing, ultrasound, immunizations, hospitalization and surgery. He appeared on over 500 television and radio talk shows. Sally Mendelsohn, CNM is the daughter of Dr. Robert Mendelsohn and a leader for women in her own right. After getting her undergraduate degree at Brandeis College, she graduated from Georgetown and Cornell Universities to eventually became a Certified Nurse Midwife in 1982. During her 25 year career, she delivered babies both in home and hospital settings. Most recently, she taught midwifery in the graduate program at New York University. Sally and her family have recently launched a new website to more broadly share the ideas of her father. Learn more at www.thepeoplesdoctor.net.
Observers who grow up in the suburbs are used to seeing green lots as the emblem of a city working towards public health. It takes more than a few bicycle trips past the empty lots in south-side Chicago for the newcomer to realize that the fields, nearly five miles of them, are not a park system at all.In 1962, Chicago's Robert Taylor Homes were at the forefront of city experiments in government experiments in racial integration, housing 11,000 people on the edge of Chicago's south side. Despite being a testing ground for radical programs such as Project Head Start, the neighborhood rapidly declined. High unemployment figures reflected the racial segregation and economic isolation that increasingly typified black inner-city neighborhoods after 1970. Graffiti and low-level drug trade in the 70s evolved during the 80s into gang wars, arson, and high murder rates. By the year 2000, Robert Taylor Homes were presented in urban planning textbooks as the icon of a geography of despair. When the homes were demolished between 2005 and 2007, their absence told a story about the scale of government hope, its breakdown and reversal.There are other stories in that landscape, too. The moving bodies of displaced inhabitants, walking to work or congregating at church, tell what happens to a community whose landscape is disappearing beneath them.
