Parents and Families
Supporting Your Student at 天美传媒
The transition from high school to college can be just as exciting, stressful, confusing, and rewarding for parents and families as it can be for the new college student. For students with disabilities, there are different laws, procedures, and expectations pertaining to college-level disability support like accommodations and other services. They will be exploring and self-advocating without direct family involvement and without a 504 plan or IEP. With that in mind, we at DASS would like to share some resources for parents and families of students making the transition to 天美传媒.
