Foster Children and Education: How You Can Create a Positive Educational Experience for the Foster Child
Foster Children and Education: How You Can Create a Positive
Educational Experience for the Foster Child http://tinyurl.com/48gd7 When it comes to succeeding in school, foster children face unique challenges and obstacles that have them lagging behind their peers. This kit, designed primarily for use by caseworkers and educators, lays out those challenges and offers some simple, inexpensive lessons and tools that can enhance the educational experience of children in foster care. The lessons - including how to facilitate school registration and how to increase adult attendance at parent/teacher conferences - can be adapted for use in any community. They are drawn from the experience of Safe and Smart, a joint project of the Vera Institute and the New York City Administration for Children's Services that placed caseworkers in schools to support foster children.
