Iep Meeting Case Study

IEP’s which are individualized educational plan are very important documents, they are used to meet a student’s educational needs. There are certain criteria a student must meet to be eligible for special education services. A team of people work together to create

IEP stands for an Individualized Education Program, it is a document, that was developed in conjunction with the parent/guardian, is an individually tailored statement describing an educational plan for each learner with exceptionalities There are five major points that are to address the present level of academic functioning personnel as present level of performance, annual goals and accompanying instructional objectives, educational services to be proved, the degree to which the pupil will be able to participate in general education programs, and plans for initiating services and length of services and length

One of the two requirements from indicator 13 that is missing is the teacher did not inviting Lisette to her own IEP meeting. The teacher mentioned that the reason for not inviting Lisette was because she knew basketball practice. Regardless, indicatory 7 states that the students must be invited to their own IEP meeting where transition plans will be talked about. Their must be proof that an attempt was made to invite the student to attend the IEP transition meeting. If I was the facilitator of the meeting I would try to make an arrangement that worked with everyone schedule involved and also Lisettes. Having the student involved at the IEP transition planning is important, because there are discussions about her future and plans

In the video, it discusses the main purpose the to discuss the student behavior. I also notice that they included a parking lot for when the meeting gets out of topic we can write down in the parking lot and address them at a later the end of the meeting. Also, the team must discuss the main goals to create strategies to help with the student educational goals. In the video, it discusses the student overall progress and behavior and set out goals was to create strategies to improve student behavior at school. In addition, reviewing to IEP checklist I believe the difficult part is not getting off the topic. They will be parents that are unhappy or don’t agree with the results that can cause tension and frustration. The purpose of the meeting is to collaborate and coming into agreement strategies to improve on the child goals. It will be difficult to stick with the agenda when the parent has other topics to address instead of the goals that are presented. Facilitated IEP are beneficial with complex IEP meeting issues especially when knowing beforehand situations have been complex. A facilitator supports the general IEP team that is conducting a IEP meeting. The team members run the meeting while the facilitator main purpose is to intervene and upholds the peace, while assisting the team to focus on the real issues and goals in

During the meeting, several issues are address such as concerns, activities, questions and changes in IEP goals. Student’s placement in a special education program is decided by the IEP team after parents or facilitator gives the ok for the students to begin receiving services that they are in desperate need of. Some decision that at made at the meeting are not always done with all parties in agreement with what needs to change. Some parents don’t agree with some of the services that will be provided to their child but, will need more time to think about the services and need the reason why some decisions where consider for their child, but never receive it. Some parents never agree and do not give their written consent for the services their child has received. When this issue is not resolved parents have the option to ask for mediation and a hearing but because of the backlog with the meeting process they feel that the meeting will not take place and their voice will never be heard. Parents know that in order to participate in their child’s IEP, teachers and the IEP team must know the students disability. Several Parents complain that some of the parties at the meeting do not know who their child is so how recommendations for services’ can made. Parents send principals letters demanding answers to their

As a special education teacher I am involved in numerous meetings, in some of those meetings I have noticed that words, cultures and back grounds can impact the tone and outcome of the meeting. For some parents meeting with a room full of teachers can be intimidating. All too often the meeting consists of educated, white females. I am often the first African American teacher the student or parents have had interactions with. I can remember sitting in an IEP meeting for an hour when everyone had left the room besides me and the parent, I asked again if she had any questions or concerns. The parent asked, “What does all this mean for my child?” This parent sat in a meeting for an hour and had no idea what was being said nor did she feel comfortable

The tone is serious and supportive at this time. The mother expressed her continued frustration from her last meeting that occurred at Anson middle school last year. Dr. Neiman had the opportunity to review the most recent Individualized Education Plan, from January 2017, with the team. We are focused on the educational model outlined by the department of public instruction guidelines. By law, these guidelines focus on benchmarks and short-term objectives; the challenge is making sure he is successful as a student. As it relates to speech, this student should be able to communicate. The main question/concern of Dr. Neiman’s is if the student’s current speech abilities and IEP goals are appropriate to allow him access to the classroom curriculum. If so, the student would not qualify for additional speech services.

A proposed draft IEP was developed and reviewed. The hearing impaired teacher recommends she go to Kaley to get an audiogram updated prior to her graduation.

Petitioner’s paragraph 31-A in Beaumont IV alleges a failure to develop specific and measurable IEP goals and objectives based on assessed present levels of performance in the areas of speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, in-home training, parent training, total communication, and ABA therapy evaluation. All of the alleged failures amount to an alleged failure to implement the Beaumont I final order.

I was never invited to that meeting; rather I found out from Mrs. Avalon that it was set up on November 5th at 11:30 am. I was however invited to a meeting on that same day at 2:30 pm, with the Heartshare team, to discuss Alexia’s progress, (but no mention of the IEP meeting). I am very knowledgeable about the board of education’s procedure regarding IEP meetings as I am the mother of three special education children. If the parent does not show up to the IEP meeting the board of education and the school have the meeting without the parent(s) and later present their findings to the parent and he or she signs it. While I was not informed about the IEP meeting, I was invited to go over the results of that the meeting’s

This counselor attended Ashlee's IEP meeting on 10/23/17 at Lutz. In attendance was Ashley, her mom, her cousin/CLS worker, Rita from Pathways, the school psychologist Susan, her teacher, Mrs. Patti, the school transition coordinator Joe, and her CMH coordinator Lisa.

IEP’s can be very lengthy and overwhelming causing parents to lose focus quickly. The IEP team carefully review the students IEP with the parents and ask if there are any questions regarding the IEP. However, many parents are not aware of what to ask because they don’t understand the terminology and the small font size of the text. Numerous parent are leaving IEP meeting unaware of how to properly support their child academically.

The first project I completed was Project A, which I only observed one IEP meeting that was both an annual and a domain meeting. I attended this meeting on February 22, 2017 for about two hours. IEP team members included: student’s mother, father, grandmother, Mrs. Phipps, school nurse, school psych intern, social worker, and myself. Each person in the meeting signed on form stating who was in attendance during the meeting. From my own previous experience, I have attended a few of my IEP meetings, and I did relate my experience attending my own IEP meeting to attending Student E’s IEP meeting. All the members in the IEP team, especially Mrs. Phipps demonstrated IPTS 9, “The competent teacher is an ethical and reflective practitioner who exhibits professionalism; provides leadership in the learning community; and advocates for students, parents or guardians, and the profession” (IPTS 9). Before I went to the IEP meeting, I could not help but think about my past experiences of my IEP meetings, and I wondered how I can learn to separate my experience to Student E’s IEP, but being in a different perspective, I learned there is more value in communicating and working with others. Every member in the IEP team asserted and expressed their opinions and concerns about the student; thus, they will move

Accommodations: Struggling students who are on IEP’s will have Para to help them with the writing. There are two students on IEP’s that will be at the same table with a Para who will help them with their individual writing. The teacher will walk around the class and double check the struggling student’s understanding of the material, as well as other students.
