Synopsis

Public schools offer a wide range of supports for disabled children--but for parents, navigating the system can be like getting trapped in a complex maze. Stacey Shubitz has "been there" as both a parent and a veteran educator. She provides a map for the journey in this indispensable guide. Shubitz explains the ins and outs of special versus general education, expert evaluations, disability designations, Individualized Education Programs, 504 Plans, and more. Parents learn to communicate effectively with teachers and school staff, get the most out of meetings, and ensure that plans are well implemented and revised so kids can thrive. Plus, Shubitz shares downloadable practical tools, self-care strategies, tips for cultivating joy, and an inclusive children's book list to make reading together a habit. With the right help, parents can channel their love and hope into success and self-determination for their child with any type of disability.
