"With few, but amazingly apt words, this brochure paints a big picture of what bipolar disorder is and how
the symptoms-- as well as how the side effects of the medications--affect the student in the classroom.
Ideas for communicating with the family (including positive notes home when all is going well) will help
forge a better parent/teacher relationship and open the door to better and more effective teaching and
learning."
Janice Papolos co-author of The Bipolar Child

"This 8-page brochure will help educators who are teaching a child with bipolar disorder to understand the
symptoms, affects in the classroom, medications, discipline, and how to communicate with the family. A
great brochure for your school's principal, nurse, counselors and teachers involved in educating a child
with bipolar disorder."

"I just received 'The Student with Bipolar Disorder' and it is fantastic! Thank you so much for writing a
clear, concise, and informative guide. This pamphlet does a great job of explaining these children to
educators without making anyone feel bad. Thanks again - I know this will help my son be successful in
school."

"This was the greatest resource I have come across. It is so easy to understand. I feel when I am trying to
explain my child's bipolar diagnosis and how it effects his learning, alot of educators do not understand.
This was an easy read. I gave it to my son's special ed teacher and to the the teacher consultant who is
running the IEP meeting. I just can't thank you enough."
