1 - Gathering Information for School-Entry

Analyzing the information gathered

After gathering information from the school, other parents, your child, and yourself, you will have a great deal of data to consider.

To fully take advantage of the information you have gathered, look for patterns:

• What does this information suggest will go smoothly with the school-entry process?
• What does the information suggest about potential trouble spots or challenges?
• What information gaps do you have, and
  
• How do you think you can find this information?

Any patterns you find across sources will help you to prioritize information and needed accommodations.
