Having a parent-teacher meeting is an opportunity to collaborate;

the parent and teacher need to set expectations for the meeting and come with ideas and open communication. Laying out the meeting agenda and meeting goals then sticking to them will help facilitate a productive meeting. We must remember like an IEP meeting our overall goal is the student.

Collectively the PEN Team has over 60 years of experience with all aspects of disability, from medical diagnosis, early intervention (IFSP) to school eligibility - IDEA/IEP, inclusion in school & community settings, navigating Transition and Post Secondary options to living independently, and much much more … our goal is to share our experience, strength and hope through informal storytelling of raising our children with a wide range of disabilities & family dynamics.

PEN serves 12 counties from Southeast FL into parts of Central FL (Broward, Indian River, Lake, Martin, Miami-Dade, Monroe, Okeechobee, Orange, Osceola, Palm Beach, Polk, and St. Lucie Counties). Please call 800-825-5736 if you would like to talk to a Parent trainer.
