These terms include schools offering only undergraduate preparation as well as undergraduate and graduate education, freestanding schools offering professional degrees, and two-year community and junior colleges offering technical, vocational, and liberal arts programs. A parent is the legally recognized father or mother of a person. Generally, the term refers only to biological mothers and fathers. By statute in most American jurisdictions, however, people who adopt children are also considered to be parents. Following are links to resources for students and parents.

Chapter Quicklink What's the Buzz Escape Hatch: Open Mic Parents and Student Resources The interest and involvement of a child's parents can have strong effect on how that child performs as a student. Children whose parents show interest and offer assistance in their children's learning experiences consistently outperform children whose parents show no interest, or who consider the education of their children to be "the school's job." Many parents wish to be more involved in education, but think they don't have the time, or simply don't know where to start. The links on this page can provide parents and students with resources they can use, in seeking ways to work together for the best possible education. Get more exposure, list your site

Howard County has the largest per capita population of children with autism in the State. The State average is about 2% of the special education population; in Howard County over 6% of its special education population are children with autism. Most families move to Howard County because 1) we have some of the best early intervention services in the state or 2) the school system is better at including children with autism than some of the other counties in the Washington-Baltimore metropolitan area. This page provides links to some of the more significant official resources in the county that are of use to families dealing with autism. We have also, courtesy of the Autism Society of South Carolina, adapted a guide to autism with local resources and other informational materials. We also have separate pages describing Early Intervention, Grade School through College Education, and currently under construction is a page on other services (respite, family support,. housing, etc). As historical notes, this page also has links to the parent White Paper on Early Intervention, which was part of the process of advocating for our current services, and a paper

ACCEPTABLE USE POLICIES - A HANDBOOK Virginia Department of Education Division of Technology Introduction Components Samples Forms and Templates Send additions or comments to: aup@mail.vak12ed.edu Return to VDOE homepage INTRODUCTION Many Virginia K-12 educators use the instructional resources found via shared educational tools, such as school and division-wide computer networks and the Internet. The increased use of such resources requires that administrators, teachers, library media specialists, students, and parents take steps to ensure that when used responsibly, these tools and the resources found by them are appropriate for use in K-12 instruction. In response to these concerns, schools or school divisions are required to establish guidelines for the appropriate use of computer networks. Such guidelines are generally called an Acceptable Internet Use Policy, or AUP. By definition, an AUP is a written agreement in the form of guidelines, signed by students, their parents and their teachers, outlining the terms and conditions of Internet use-rules of online behavior and access privileges. To assist school divisions, we have created an electronic "handbook" of resources. Since schools are at various stages of implementation in the use of computer networks, this electronic handbook does not prescribe a single Acceptable Internet Use Policy. Instead, it provides links to various sources of information that may be helpful to administrators, teachers, library media specialists, and parents in the development of a local AUP. The Internet is a virtual community based simply on courtesy and commonsense. A local AUP reflects the circumstances unique to the school or division, the electronic system used, and clearly defines what constitutes local responsible use of information networks.
