Mansoura College is keen to maintain and reinforce the relationship between parents and school administration, and this is through our website, e-mailing system, and School Electronic System (mySchool).
What Parents Need To Know?
Some children experience difficulties in school, ranging from problems with concentration, learning, language, and perception to problems with behavior and/or making and keeping friends. These difficulties may be due to one or more of the following: physical disorders, psychiatric disorders, emotional problems, behavioral problems, and learning disorders (or disabilities). These children with special needs are usually entitled to receive special services or accommodations through the public schools.
Evaluation of Your Child :
As a parent, you may request an evaluation of your child to determine his or her needs for special education and/or related services. These are the steps you need to take:
1
Initially, meet with your child's teacher to share your concerns and request an evaluation by the school's child study team.
2
All requests for evaluations and services should be made in writing, and dated. Always keep a copy for your record.
3
Keep careful records, including observations reported by your child's teachers and any communications (notes, reports, letters, grading, attendance statistics, etc.) between home and school.
4
Parents can also request independent professional evaluations.
What a Parent Can Do ?
Parents must be proactive and take necessary steps to make sure their child receives appropriate services.
