[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even if you are not able to have an IEP in place before kindergarten, you may find it useful to have an advance chat with the principal over the summer. We had an IEP going into K, but it did not even begin to describe our child's actual needs (we have since sorted that out.) The principal heard us out and gave a lot of thought to assigning a kindergarten teacher. We didn't ask for someone specific, we just described our child and the skills we thought would be especially important for the teacher to have in their toolbox. This was very helpful. The teacher was a great fit! We were also able to have our child visit the building a few times over the summer when it wasn't full of other kids. The principal appreciated the outreach and wanted to help. Obviously not every school has that mindset but never hurts to ask.[/quote] Thank you! I really appreciate these ideas and it is in line with what other people have suggested to us.[/quote]
