We hope this list is helpful to you for your IEP meeting but also all year long. Please share this list with anyone and let us know if you have an idea about something that should be included here. The key to a great IEP is working with your whole team and using the data from your school day. If we use data and work together, your goals will be important to you and we will get them accomplished. Do your part so we can get you where you want to be!
