[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An IEP entitles your child to accommodations and services in order to access the curriculum. What do you think is needed to be successful? Additional time on tests, preferential seating, frequent breaks, reduced paper and pencil tasks, a “lunch bunch” social group, check-ins with a counselor, etc. are common in IEP’s. [/quote]

Thanks, really that's the question I had: it's hard to reconcile the IEP process and all the paperwork with what are the "bread and butter" things that we should be asking for. We have an IEP that specifies preferential seating, time on tests, etc... but our kid's personality is a tough combination of a) fierce independence; and b) really, really struggling with executive function issues. They're doing so much better with their depression and anxiety but they have a limited ability to get their workload in order, and have almost zero tolerance for parental involvement. So we're trying to find ways to have the school support them in things like calling them out when they get behind, more direct feedback vs just dumping things into Instructure/Synergy online portal. Just hard to know what's appropriate to ask for.[/quote]
