  • Team Up : Chat with teachers, parents, and school staff to share tips and tricks that help kids thrive.

  • Gear Up : Suggest cool tools like special pencils, seating, or tech to make school tasks easier.

  • Keep Records : Jot down progress notes and stay on top of paperwork to keep everything legit.
