Speech and Language

Miss Sue Blankenship

I graduated from Illinois State University with my Bachelor’s degree in May, 1986 and my Master’s degree in December, 1987.  I began my career as a speech-language pathologist working at Dee-Mack in January, 1988.

As a speech-language pathologist in the public school setting, I am responsible for screening, evaluating, and treating students three years and older who exhibit delays in: speech sound acquisition or production, syntax, vocabulary, language processing skills, and pragmatics.  I also work with students who have noticeable abnormal disfluencies.

I can be contacted at Dee-Mack Primary/Jr. High, Monday through Friday at 359-4321, ext. 2117 or via e-mail at sblanken@deemack.org
