IEP May 1, 2008

Jump to Comments

Today is Maddie’s IEP.  It never gets “easy”, but I feel pretty comfortable with how I anticipate the meeting will go.  I know at what points I will tear up and what point I will have to be fighting mad.

Just yesterday, a mom said this to me:

I guess I have looked at an IEP as something done “to” or “for” me.

That speaks volumes about how parents aren’t treated as active participants, as equal partners in the process.

Keep your fingers crossed for me today!  I’ll update tomorrow and post the Parent Input I’m providing.

  • Good luck at the IEP! I will check back for an update

  • It went well! Shocking, I know!

    A more complete update later today! Somehow spending so much time on paperwork left little time for housework and laundry. I hate a dirty house over the weekend, so hi ho hi ho its off to washer and dryer I go.

    Thanks for the well wishes everyone.
