Complimentary Live Webinar
Every student deserves an educational environment where they are understood, supported, and empowered to succeed.
Join the Turner Syndrome Foundation’s Educating the Educator Initiative for an informative webinar designed to help educators, school psychologists, counselors, administrators, therapists, and families better understand the educational implications of Turner syndrome.
Turner syndrome is a chromosomal condition that can affect physical development, cardiovascular health, hearing, executive functioning, visual-spatial skills, mathematics, social communication, and fertility. While every individual is unique, increased awareness among educational professionals can make a lasting difference in a student’s academic experience and overall well-being.
This webinar will explore:

The educational profile and learning characteristics are commonly associated with Turner syndrome
Strategies for creating an empathetic, student-centered learning environment
Classroom accommodations and supports that promote academic success
Navigating educational milestones from elementary school through higher education
Building effective partnerships between educators, families, and healthcare professionals
Practical tools to help students with Turner syndrome thrive both academically and socially

Whether you are an educator, healthcare professional, parent, caregiver, or advocate, this session will provide practical guidance and evidence-informed strategies that can be implemented immediately in the classroom.
Together, we can bridge the gap between diagnosis and educational success by ensuring every student with Turner syndrome has the opportunity to reach her full potential.
Registration is free, but advance registration is required.
