As the school year comes to a close, this is one of the most important times to gather information, reflect on what worked, and set your child up for success next year. A little proactive communication now can make a big difference later. Here are some simple but powerful steps you can take: 1. Ask Teachers What Actually Worked Reach out to your child’s case manager and classroom teacher(s) and ask: Which SDIs (supports/accommodations) were most helpful? Which ones were used consistently?...

As the school year begins, parents of children with special needs face unique challenges and opportunities. Establishing a strong partnership with your child's teacher is one of the most important steps you can take. This relationship can directly influence your child's educational experience, so clear and thoughtful communication is essential from day one.

Parenting in the age of social media and constant technology is a unique challenge.
