[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does it need to be in person? One of the major upgrades has been virtual parent meetings. Parents don’t have to deal with taking extra time off work to drive to/from the school, no dealing with the parking lot or not knowing which entrance to use, no waiting for the terribly slow ID system to decide to work, no one on staff has to escort the parents to and from the meeting (which itself takes 5-10 minutes). In person meetings need to be a thing of the past!! [/quote] Says the general educator who left the IEP at some point in the middle. Seriously - the virtual IEP meeting doesn’t engage all the members. People tune out (and leave without announcing they are leaving). What gets lost is the needs of the child. Schools should give families choice. Their heavy handed approach to schedule meetings without checking with the parent as to preference as to format and time is a passive aggressive way of not treating parents as equal team members.[/quote]
