Keeping records of meetings with parents and support structures is important for maintaining communication and tracking progress. Here are some suggestions for what to include in these records:
1. Date and time of the meeting 2. Names of all attendees (parents, teachers, counselors, etc.) 3. Purpose of the meeting (e.g. discussing academic progress, behavior concerns, creating a behavior plan) 4. Summary of the discussion and any decisions made 5. Action items and follow-up tasks assigned to each party 6. Any agreements or commitments made during the meeting 7. Any resources or support services recommended or provided 8. Next steps and timeline for follow-up 9. Any additional notes or observations from the meeting
It is also important to keep these records organized and easily accessible for future reference. This can be done through a digital system, such as a shared drive or online platform, or through physical files kept in a secure location. Regularly updating and reviewing these records can help ensure that all parties are on the same page and working towards the same goals.
