The main goal of FDLRS/Gateway Parent Services is to promote partnerships between schools and parents.  FDLRS/Gateway does this by:

¯ assisting schools and districts in developing family friendly programs,

¯ ensuring that families have access to exceptional student education training, and

¯ providing information to families and professionals about local resources and family support groups.

 

These are some of the ways that FDLRS can help parents:

¯ Individual Assistance — By phone or in person, we can provide information about ESE (Exceptional Student Education) programs and services, provide guidance on educational planning, and assist families in finding community resources.

¯ Parent Training and Informational Workshops

¯ Provide Opportunities for Parent Involvement

¯ Parent Path — A newsletter for parents of children served through Exceptional Student Education, is published three times yearly and contains information on disability issues, upcoming events, and resources for families and students.
