This isn't San Diego-specific, but it's a worthwhile share ๐Ÿ˜Š. With two kids on IEPs, I've noticed harmony with school admins is crucial. When we faced disagreements, we had many questions about navigating the situation. We've spoken to numerous people and hired an advocate for guidance. ๐Ÿง

Educators do exceptional work ๐Ÿ™Œ, and understanding IEP rights/processes is essential when disagreements arise. If you're looking to strengthen your knowledge on this, check out this webinar. It's a valuable resource for navigating an IEP for children with autism.

โœจThe webinar highlights strategies for:โœจ

  • Understanding the IEP process.
  • Effective communication with school professionals.
  • Setting appropriate goals.
