Keep the documents and details you choose in your own account.

This isn't about being combative with schools. It's about being prepared. Organized records protect your child's rights — and your peace of mind.
Schools keep records. You should too. Your copy is the one you control.
Stop trying to remember everything. Let a system carry the weight so you can stay focused on your child.
A simple log of calls, emails, and meetings turns 'he said, she said' into clear, dated notes.
