About Me

Hello! My name is Laura Heming, and I am the district’s Speech-Language Pathologist. This is my 11th year working as an SLP in the school setting.

 

I earned my Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in May 2014. I maintain both my ASHA certification and my license to practice in Pennsylvania. I have always loved working in schools and supporting students as they reach their goals, build confidence, and grow as communicators. In my therapy sessions, I strive to make learning engaging, fun, and supportive while helping students develop the speech and language skills they need to succeed.

 

I live just outside of New Florence, where my husband and I keep a small hobby farm with mini donkeys and a variety of other animals. We have three wonderful boys—Colton, McCoy, and Waylon—who keep life busy and full of joy. In my free time, I enjoy boating, fishing, and spending time with my family.

This week in speech therapy, we created silly pumpkin faces! Each pumpkin’s teeth featured our target speech sounds and language goals. Students practiced their words while building their pumpkins, then expanded their skills by using their targets in conversation. It was a fun and festive way to practice clear speech and strong language skills!

Monthly Practice Calendars

Dear Families,

This year, your child will be bringing home a Speech/Language Practice Calendar each month. These calendars include simple daily activities that take about 10 minutes to complete.

Participation is optional—they are not required assignments—but many families have asked for extra practice and ways to support speech and language growth at home. The calendars are a fun and easy way to reinforce skills outside of therapy sessions if you’d like to use them.

Thank you for your continued support!
