Understanding the Perceptions of School Engagement of Parents of Students With Autism
Family–school engagement is integral to the success of students with autism. However, limited research has examined the conceptualization of family–school engagement from the perspective of parents of children with autism.

Using qualitative analysis, the authors identified seven types of engagement, each of …

In this study, we used individual participant feedback data collected by a northwestern state over a 2-year period to answer the following re…
