Support Fathers' Rights’ Post

Before your IEP meeting, you should familiarize yourself with the laws and regulations governing a child’s rights to special education. You need to be able to speak intelligently about your child’s specific difficulties and how/why a particular type of program would/would not meet your child’s needs.

This is a tricky question that we get a lot and the answer varies. If you feel topics are being brushed over or rushed, the meeting is probably too quick. You can speak up to your school district and express concerns, or bring extra advocates with you, such as a Civil Rights Attorney (like us!). However, if you and your IEP team communicate and prepare beforehand, it is certainly possible for the meeting to only last 20 minutes. It can also be a concern if your meetings are taking too long and you feel as if no progress is being made over an hour or more. All in all, IEP meeting times vary based on the child and what's being discussed. #iep #individualizededucationplan #specialeducation #specialed #inclusiveeducation #inclusiveclassroom #iepresources #civilrightsattorney #504plan #behaviorinterventionplan #specialedmom
