Education Advocate
CurrentI help families identify why a student may be struggling, create a plan to help the student and family, and collaborate with the school district to implement solutions. All children can learn, but they all learn differently. Some can fulfill their potential within the typical public school classroom while others need additional support from tutors, special education teachers and other professionals. Some may require a different school setting, but they all can learn, grow and reach their potential. I will help them reach that potential.I offer the following services:- Recommend ways to identify your child's learning style – strengths and weaknesses- Review student evaluations and assessments - Identify the services and support necessary to help your child succeed in school- Create a plan with you to improve your child's academic and emotional success - Participation in IEP process, facilitate team meetings, write and review IEP goals - Support parents and schools by knowing and interpreting the special education laws that support the individual child on an IEP or 504 plan or a child who needs a plan, including: - FAPE – Fair and Appropriate Education - IDEA – Individuals with Disabilities Education Act - IEP – Individual Education Plan - LRE – Least Restrictive Environment - Due Process
