Back to School Safety for Special Needs Students in 2023

January 1, 2021

Special needs students nationwide will be going back to school and with the changes do to COVID-19 the transition may be especially hard. Many children with special needs have gone without therapy, social interaction with peers, and have had their routine greatly disrupted. When you mix all of this with the fact that the school they go back to may not be the same as they’re used to, it could result in an unusually stressful and anxious transition period.

Safety During the Transition Back to School


Many children with autism and special needs find comfort in familiarity, consistency, and routine. All of these things may be disrupted during this back to school season. Parents have already noticed unusual behavior due to the Covid-19 changes and this transition will likely add additional stress and anxiety. It is not uncommon to see unexpected new behaviors and/or the return or increase in wandering behaviors during such times. It’s an unsettling time for parents and kids alike and it’s important to use every precaution to keep our children as safe as possible.


There are several ways that AngelSense GPS for Kids can help to ease the transition. Just the peace of mind it gives you as a parent, knowing your child is protected, helps to create a more relaxed atmosphere that your child will pick up on. In addition, children who wear AngelSense have often expressed that wearing it makes them feel better because their parents can check in with them. Knowing you’re still there throughout the day can be a huge comfort.



Here are some of the safety features that you’ll only find with AngelSense:
