Helping Foster Children In School offers practical guidance for parents, teachers and social workers supporting children in care. With over 40 years of experience fostering children, John DeGarmo shares strategies to address the common challenges faced by foster children in schools.

This book provides a unified approach to support these children, emphasizing open dialogue between all parties involved. By working together, everyone can help achieve the best outcome for the child. This guide is an invaluable resource for those supporting foster children, providing easy-to-use strategies to target common problems and ensure the child receives the best possible education.
