As parents, we all want our kids to thrive at school, but sometimes things don’t go as smoothly as we’d hoped — whether it’s accommodations, modifications, placement, or inclusion. We want everything to come together in a way that truly supports our children, so the question is: what do we do when it’s just not working?!
During this event, Lisa M. Carey, Undivided Non-Attorney Education Advocate, gave us her expert tips on how to work with your IEP team to come up with solutions.
