Speech

Speech therapy services in a school are based on an educational model. Under this, students are provided with the services they need to succeed in a school setting with a focus on supporting a student’s ability to understand and use information taught in the classroom and participate in learning to achieve success both academically and socially. Speech therapy is an instructional service which means it can be the only service a student receives or it can also be provided as a part of a more in-depth IEP for students with disabilities such as autism, traumatic brain injury, learning disability and attention deficit disorder. Speech Language Pathologists in schools typically evaluate and provide direct individual and/ or group therapy as well as consultative services for skills such as articulation, language, social skills, executive functioning, voice, and fluency. Speech Language Pathologists also serve an important role in educating parents and teachers about communication disorders.

Hi there, my name is Bailey! I was born and raised in the DFW area and completed my undergraduate degree at Abilene Christian University in 2023 and my master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology at Abilene Christian University at Dallas in May 2025. I am so excited to be starting my first year as an SLP at Gunstream Elementary!

A little more about me - I am the oldest sibling of three (very classic oldest child), with a younger brother living in Idaho and camping every other weekend, and a “little” sister wrapping up high school. On any given weekend, you could probably find me at a Dallas Stars game with friends, touring a college campus with my sister, or relaxing on my couch watching a RomCom or Gilmore Girls for the hundredth time. I have already felt so welcomed by the Gunstream family, and I am so ready to get started and collaborate to support the needs of your kiddos! I'm excited for what the '25-'26 year has in store!
