Does your back-to-school to-do list feel like it has a mind of its own? You cross off one thing and three more pop up — and somehow the first week of school is already here. Goodbye summer, hello new schedules, new teachers, new friends, and different challenges. Between the endless back-to-school shopping list and trying to coordinate a million moving pieces with your child’s school team, things can quickly feel overwhelming. That’s exactly why we’re here.
Together with parents, professionals, special education experts, and engineers, we’ve built an all-in-one platform to make sure YOU get the support you need for a new school year. (Psst…stick around for an exclusive video tour of Undivided’s new IEP Assistant!)
7 ways Undivided can help with the new school year
1. Special education and IEP templates→ Hate writing yet another school email or figuring out your child’s “All About Me?” Our template library has ready-to-use templates, checklists, letters, and more — created with education advocates and experienced parents.
2. Office hours with experts→ Do you have a burning question about your child’s IEP or 504 that you can’t find the answer to? Hop on Zoom to video chat with an advocate! Every week, Undivided office hours hosts experts in special education, insurance, public benefits, and the tools of the Undivided platform so that you can get the expert insight you need.
3. Step-by-step guidance→ Big goals like requesting a 1:1 aide or assessment for your child can feel impossible to start. Our step-by-step walkthroughs help break them down into simple, doable steps so you can get a leg up on your to-do list.
PLUS, this fall, we’re taking step-by-step guidance to a whole new level with the launch of our brand-new IEP Assistant, an AI-powered tool designed to simplify the IEP process and take the guesswork out of your child’s accommodations, services, and other school supports! Upload your child’s IEP to get actionable recommendations along with a summary that includes your concerns, priorities, and more — perfect for your next IEP meeting.
But wait, there’s more! Read on for the final four supports.
