OT Day

Gurnee School District 56 celebrates World Occupational Therapy day. Our district can't thank enough our therapist who everyday tends to our students' needs with high passion, respect and understanding. Today, District 56 thanks Jennifer Capp (OT), Lori Antreassean (OT), and Marla Warren (PT) for their dedication to our students.

“Occupational therapy is the only profession that helps people across the lifespan to do the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of daily activities (occupations). Occupational therapy practitioners enable people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability.” American Occupational Therapy Association.
