EDUCATIONAL
SERVICE PLAN
EDU 647 – Families, Communities & Diversity
Professor Thinh Nguyen
Introduction
Becoming a special education teacher is a priority for me because I want
to assist students with having the strongest foundation necessary for
building their future on.
I believe that regardless of the disability, every
child deserves a strong an opportunity to learn.
Communication allows
teachers, parents, and the community an opportunity to work together to
build a solid educational foundation for children.
Communicating with parents is a huge responsibility that teachers face.
Failing to keep the parents informed of the progress of their child
academics is the reason for missing an opportunity to bridge
communication, which is essential in the life of children (Teaching
Community, n. d.).
Communication can be carried out in multiple forms.
Effective Communication
Using notes such as book/journal is an effective
way for teachers to communicate with parents.
Using a communication log allows both the
teacher and parents an opportunity to leave
and receive notes for each other.
Parent/teacher conferences are essential as
well.

Trust
Increasing family involvement is linked to enhancing the
performance of students.
Trust can be built by:
Having open communication
Keeping parents informed of the activities of their child
Providing an opportunity for parents to voice their opinion or
concerns
Inviting the parents to the classroom
Allowing the parents to volunteer in the classroom (Brewster &
Railsback, n. d.)

negatively because of the deliverance of the

Parents and
Transitioning
Parents play a critical role in
the lives of their disabled
child, when they transition to
adulthood.
Parents are responsible for
ensuring the proper mandates
are provided.
Parents can assist with
ensuring their child
understand the availability of
services after leaving school
(Austin, 2000).
Conclusion
+
The academic success of all students, including
disabled students is important and providing a
strong foundation is necessary for building their
future.
One of the biggest responsibilities of
teachers is communicating with parents.
In
situations where communication fails, an
opportunity of bridging communication is missed
which is essential in the life and success of the
child.
