Keynote - Don't Limit Me! (or Students Like Me)

This keynote session highlights Megan's 'Don't Limit Me!' video, which received nearly 400,000 hits on YouTube. As an adult with Down syndrome, Megan addresses teaching special students the 'right way' - by teaching them independence, respect, and holding them to high standards. Megan discusses her careers as a fashion model, public speaker, event planner, entrepreneur, and, now, TV celebrity. Kris Bomgaars talks about her journey as a single mother. To better understand and navigate the educational system, Kris became a special ed teacher, herself. She has been instrumental in helping Megan grow up to be independent and follow her dreams.
