[QUOTE="totoro, post: 293426, member: 3155"] I don't know if this was mentioned? But one thing K's teacher and the whole staff, last year really appreciated was the fact that we let them know we would be there to help in any way possible, we would take their recommendations,(with a grain of salt of salt sometimes) we would work with them, we made our presence known in a good and positive way. I know some can't be available like we can. But any free time you have I would be at the School. Even when K or N were driving me crazy I showed how much I loved them. I asked the teacher questions, I let her know anytime something was different or had changed in our house or medication wise. But always in a nice but caring way. I checked in at the office as much as I could and asked them how they were, I brought them cookies or baked goods from home... The other thing is I make sure that K has a safe place, she can go to the Nurse or the Principal's office or take a walk with the aide. Whenever she is feeling out of sorts to avoid a meltdown. Also she and the teacher have a secret sign I think it was raising one finger, in a discrete way, the Teacher would come over to see if she was OK. K liked it because it was her special thing. I know not all schools are flexible but you can try. Good luck! :) [/QUOTE]
