If I am providing services at your child’s school, as part of regulations for CPSE service provision, I will consult with the classroom teacher so that we work together on following the goals identified in child’s IEP. This consultation with the regular education teacher will help your child’s progress to be successful in a school setting. Please note that only the parent/guardian can provide IEP documentation including written progress reports, session notes or other confidential information to the school and/or school teacher. If you would like for me or Important Steps, Inc. to provide school with such information, you must sign a written consent for release of information. Please be aware that Important Steps, Inc. will not charge for generating any copies requested by you in writing.

Listed below is the schedule that has been arranged for service provision either in your home or at child’s school. Times of the sessions are noted in the table below:

Please Note: Services cannot be provided on Weekends and Legal Holidays.

I will be providing you with carryover activities on a weekly basis to assure your child’s needs are met continuously. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at Important Steps, Inc. office’ at (718) 882-2111. I look forward to working with you and your child to assure academic readiness and child reaching his/her full learning potential as outlined on child’s IEP.

Sincerely,
