LAMONI, Iowa - A special education teacher is making sure his students have a positive experience in the classroom, and one parent is especially grateful.

When teaching math, Dylan Lame always makes sure to add in a helping hand.

As the PK-12 Strat II Special Education teacher, Mr. Lame teaches all the core subjects to students of all ages with higher learning needs.

"Just seeing them getting better, even if it’s a little bit at a time. Just even that little bit at a time is a big growth for the students I work with," Lame said. "But then there’s some where it’s a big leap. And that’s one of the reasons I enjoy my job because even the little gains are awesome, but the big gains are even more amazing."

Freshman Jacen Fairsky is the oldest student in Mr. Lame’s classroom and has autism.
