[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our annual IEP meeting is coming up.  Can you please give me an idea how is it different from the regular IEP meeting?  Am I expected to come up with a new set of goals?  Do we discuss whether the existing goals are met?[/quote]

You should receive a copy of the draft IEP ahead of the meeting. You can request it if they don't plan to send it. Compare the reported progress from first quarter to the present levels pages. Check to see if present levels show progress from last year.

Compare current accommodations to last year's accommodations. If any are missing, make a list and ask the time why they weren't included. Ask what data the team has to show your child no longer needs those specific accommodations.

Read over new goals and make a list of questions. Are they all written as SMART goals? Do you understand what they mean? Are they set high enough? Are they realistic?

They won't send the services ahead of time but have your current services available so you can see whether they are providing the same amount or more. If they are offering fewer service hours, ask for an explanation why.

Good luck![/quote]
