Sending a child with special needs to school can feel very worrisome for parents. Especially if it's the first time. Here are 9 things Special Educators want you to know. 

"As a special education teacher, I say to my students and parents that I love them like my own children."

"As a teacher, I want parents to know that my goal is to help students believe in themselves and become more independent. I want my students to discover their possibilities."

A Teacher Says...

"I will respect their individual differences and help them develop their true potential."

"Please know that I welcome your questions. I love working together with you."

"I will do everything in my power to keep you children safe."

A Teacher Says...

"No matter how difficult yesterday might have been, I look forward to seeing your child’s sweet face tomorrow."

"I take your child home with me on my mind and on my heart every single day."

I ask for trust and communication

"I will always guide your child toward growth. Sometimes that is not easy. It can be stressful for the child and for the families."

“Teachers are human too. We’re doing our best.”
