[quote=Anonymous]I would tell them to reschedule. You are putting yourself in a much better position to advocate for your child if you go into the IEP meeting ready to go with good records, data, assessment information (internal from school and anything external like neuropsych eval that you might feel is relevant), teacher comments or emails printed, a portfolio of your child’s work with strengths and deficits already identified, questions and concerns, potential goals or changes to the IEP draft already discussed with your advocate, your own IEP goal writer to help make changes in real time during the meeting to fit your child and their needs and ensure they are data-based goals that can easily be changed as the child progresses, any home based or external service providers that know your child well and can support you in the process, and any additional family or just a friend for moral support. It sounds like a lot but if you go in ready to advocate you will be more focused on writing good goals to get the best possible supports that your child needs.
