Parents feel the stress too.
Maybe things will be better next year. These newsletters are an excellent source of information about advocacy, educational, medical, and legal issues. Because special education generates so much paper, many parents throw documents away, or toss them away in boxes. To organize your child's file, you need to get copies of all evaluations, IEPs, correspondence, medical reports, and other information about your child from all sources. You are entitled to a complete copy of your child's file from the school.
