Abstract

The parent-school partnership serves as the foundation for attaining educational success for foster children with therapeutic needs. The authors adopt Christenson & Sheridan’s 4 A’s contextual process to present the conditions and actions required to launch effective partnerships. The school environment can be a haven for treatment foster children to build social connections, develop academic skills, and experience measures of achievement that promote confidence and efficacy. In order to attain better student outcomes; foster parents and school agents must value their respective roles and intentionally collaborate within the guidelines of federal policy.
