Do you have questions about IEPs? You will "stress less" during this IEP season if you learn, or review, what the law really says. (Hint: This may be different from what you have been told!)
- Do you understand what your role is at IEP meetings?
- Do you know the required members of your child's IEP team?
- Do you know who may be excused from IEP meetings, when, how?
In this issue of the Special Ed Advocate, you will learn about IEP team members and IEP team attendance, when team members may be excused from a meeting, and what parents and the school district must do before a team member may be excused.
Please don't hesitate to forward this issue to friends, family members, or colleagues.
