Parents Matter Parents play a vital role in the education of their children. As partners in the process, parents can provide perspectives and information that will broaden educators’ understanding of the student. Parent participation will enhance program planning and assist in the determination of educational goals, methods, and motivational strategies that are most appropriate and effective for a student. Students with ASD generally have difficulty transferring or generalizing skills from one situation or environment to another. The learning process for a student with ASD is supported when the same skills and concepts are reinforced in both the home and school environments. |

As a parent, here you will find information and resources on the Connections for Students process and how this model can support your child with ASD. At home, at school, and in the community…parents matter! |
