Progress reports, baselines, hard data, service logs, present levels, school metrics, — sounds like a giant word salad, right? It’s easy to wonder — do these numbers and reports really matter?

IEP assessments: all treats, no tricks!

At the heart of creating an effective IEP is truly understanding what makes our kids unique — strengths, goals, needs, and everything in between. But navigating assessments can feel like trying to unravel a giant spider web of information — great for Halloween decorations, but overwhelming when it’s about our kids. First, your child is …

Turning 18 soon? Here’s what’s next in your child’s transition to adulthood

The transition out of high school and into adulthood is a big milestone for our children, and in truth, ourselves as well.

IEP essentials — for newbies and experts!

Let’s face it, parents — navigating the world of IEPs can feel intimidating, whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned vet.

One month into school: is your child’s IEP being followed?

Now that the school year is in full gear, it’s the perfect time to check in on our kiddos, and their IEPs. We know how much effort it takes to get your child’s IEP just right, but if it’s not being followed or doesn’t reflect their current needs, it’s not doing its job. The fall …

How do I know which IEP related services my child needs?

When it comes to related services, a question many parents find themselves asking is, ‘How do I know if my child actually NEEDS related services?’ According to special education advocate Dr. Sarah Pelangka: “It’s really a matter of knowing and understanding your child and what you know can benefit your child.

Accommodations adapt HOW kids learn, but which ones are right for your child?

With the start of a new school year, we all want to make sure that the supports our kiddos need to thrive in school are in place — and actually being implemented in their classrooms.
