School is an important part of every child’s life, which becomes disrupted when a child is hospitalized. To bring a sense of normalcy during their hospital stay it is important that we provide them with a connection back to their school, teachers, friends and classmates. Our certified child life teacher at Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital offers academic services either in the hospital schoolroom or at the bedside, helping children stay connected by way of technology, and communicating with the child’s school to educate them about their diagnosis and ensure that there is a workable plan for the child to continue to meet educational milestones. Help preserve and encourage the joys of childhood and their education for as many of these brave children by giving a gift to support the Dick and Linda Antonini Endowed Hospital Teacher/School Liaison.
