Great video! Thanks for all you do!
Great video.
Which common genetic syndromes can be seen in FASDs?
Family engagement is very important to the child's success, in my perspective school must reach out to connect the family and encourage them to involve in their child's education especially those who have a different language or English is a second language to them.

I would like to see more parents take responsibility for their children. Even in suburban households, parents are too self-absorbed. They are far too preoccupied with their careers to genuinely connect with their kids, set expectations, and instill values. I worked in education for many years at different elementary schools. I saw the result of parental neglect. The neglect shows up in student behavior and low academic achievement. Today's students don't seem to value education and they lack sufficient parental guidance. Those who become first-year, first-generation college students either end up dropping out of college or graduate with no idea about how to navigate the world of work, earn marketable skills, and compete for a job. This is especially true for students of color, who seem to always be candidates for programs serving neglected and underserved students. Why? Why do all other parents seem to have a clue about how to raise their children properly? If you have children, then it's not just your responsibility to provide a home, clothes, and food on the table. Despite what some people in your community might be telling you, those are just basic, minimum requirements. As parents, you are also responsible for raising your children to become productive, working, and contributing members of society. This level of parenting requires that you make the time to have a relationship with your kids, help them to discover their natural gifts and talents, then put them in contact with professionals in a variety of industries who can help them achieve and become high earners. Someone needs to start holding parents accountable for not doing their job as parents. At present, there is no accountability. Students are now regularly terrorizing schools, other students, and teachers, just to have schools shut down. It is now more than ever very important for people to become better parents and give kids higher-quality parenting. If you don't want to get pregnant AND raise kids too, then you must consistently use birth control.
Most schools are too proud to see perspectives of their parents, social workers or students themselves. It’s what they want! Period!!
"Most" parents are intimidated and don't see an open door policy from their school's administration to approach them. From a parent's perspective, the administration always looks "busy" and moving to fast to actually take time and "listen". The SCHOOL needs an ambassador of sorts that proves to reach out and contact families/parents and encourage them to speak their mind.
🙏
Very informative,Its important to form a relationship with your students, and build that trust to make them fell safe.
I liked the statement, what happened to you ,giving the student the chance to get out the trauma or chance to release or vent
