Record, Reflect, and Thrive: Connecting Parents and Schools for ABA Success!
When parents and schools work together, everyone stays aligned with a student's needs. Whether it's extra support or a behavior plan, consistency at home and in the classroom is key to success.
Here’s how to effectively document communication:
Keep a Log or Journal:
Take notes from meetings, emails, or phone calls. Be sure to include the date, time, and the people involved.
Be Clear and Specific:
Instead of saying, "I didn’t like how things went today," describe exactly what happened. For example: "At 10:15 AM, I noticed a loud conversation that made it hard to focus."
Summarize Conversations:
After any discussion—whether in person or over the phone—send a quick email summarizing what was discussed to ensure everyone is on the same page.
Use Emails:
Emails automatically include the date and time, making them a reliable way to keep records of communication.
Store Records Securely:
Make sure your notes and emails are stored safely and can only be accessed by the right people.
In Summary:
Documenting communication between parents and schools helps keep things organized, tracks progress, and strengthens collaboration.
Record, reflect, and thrive—together, we create success stories for every student!
