[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The parents hands off approach is toxic for SN students. You can even find this in SN schools, and it always hurts the students.[/quote] +1 we never got valuable academic feedback in the qualitative ES report cards. The first few years the teachers would merely ask first what we thought about how things were going, then say a bunch of positive things about how everyone gets along, and then close by saying kid is doing well versus national averages (wtf are those, can’t be high...). Then we’d ask a few questions like if the kid can sit still in the chair, writes the bare minimum, gives up a lot.... like he does at home.... and the teacher would say, Oh, yes, that happens. It took a brand new teacher in year 4 to give actual real feedback that was so, so helpful for us and the pediatrician in comparing behavior at home versus school. It was consistent. [/quote]
