EARLY   INTERVENTION

Should I look for help and do something for my child right away if I believe they are having a difficult time in school or wait a bit.   ALWAYS be concerned and want to do everything possible to insure that your child is getting everything to help them with their academic skills.  Often a parent will say oh I wish I would have done that in 1st grade and now the child is in 3rd or 4th grade and they are still struggling.  It is much harder for a 3rd or 4th grader to catch up on their skills then it is for a 1st grader.  They have so many more skills that should have been developed so it is going to take them longer to catch up on all of them.   Always be proactive when it comes to giving your child extra help if they need it.  You want the school environment to be a positive experience for your child.
