This issue of the Special Ed Advocate is Back to School Session 2: Mistakes People Make - Advocates.

Anxious about this school year?

Caution! Learn how to avoid unnecessary mistakes!

Find out what advocates should do to keep a cool head and apply informed judgment every step of the way in the special ed process.

We hope you will forward this series to other friends, families, or colleagues.
