The 2020-21 academic school year will be my tenth year teaching, all at Free State High School.  Beginning this year, I will serve as an IEP case manager.  I am excited to offer a partnership for students and familes to develop an individualized vision of a successful high school experience which works towards lifelong goals.

For my first 9 years at Free State High School, I served as the Work Experience Coordinator, supporting students in their goals toward competitive employment.  Most recently as the Work Experience Coordinator, I taught three courses:  Career Development & Transition, Work Experience, and Interpersonal Skills.  Serving within this role was extremely rewarding as I was able to support students working towards goals past high school.

If you have any questions regarding these courses, please give me a contact me.

Thank you,

Patrick Dipman
