- Sharing Speech Therapy Goals:

Conclusion
When parents and teachers collaborate on speech therapy goals, children benefit the most. Consistent support at home and school can lead to greater success in both language development and academic achievement. By working together, parents and teachers can provide a strong foundation for the child’s future.
