Sound familiar?
Families want to be involved. They just don't know how yet.
For many of your families, this is their child's first time in school and their first time in special education. They're nervous, they have questions, and their child may not be able to tell them about the day. Meanwhile, you're juggling a full caseload, and it's easy for the first real contact with a family to be a phone call about a problem.
A little structure changes everything. When families feel informed and heard from day one, they trust you, share what they know about their child, and work with you instead of against you.
