On the blog: Culturally Responsive IEPs: A Guide for Families

Going through an IEP can feel overwhelming, especially if your family’s language or culture isn’t fully reflected in or by the school system. Every child deserves an education that meets their unique needs, and every parent deserves to be fully informed and included. Here’s what families shoul...

Are you walking into an IEP meeting soon?
Here’s one question you can’t forget to ask:

👉 “How will progress be measured?”

If it’s not measurable, it’s not enforceable. You deserve clear, trackable goals, not vague statements like “we think they’re improving.”

Ask the team what data will be collected, how often, and who’s responsible. The more specific the plan, the easier it is to hold everyone accountable and make sure your child gets the support they deserve.

Save this for your next meeting and share it with another parent who needs it!

Feeling unheard? Overwhelmed? Unsure what’s next? You don’t have to navigate the system alone.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed in IEP or 504 meetings, noticed your child’s goals aren’t being met or reviewed, or found yourself agreeing to things you don’t fully understand, it might be time to bring in an advocate.

An education advocate helps you cut through the confusion, hold schools accountable, and make sure your child’s needs stay front and center. You shouldn’t have to spend hours managing what should already be in place.

Your child deserves coordinated support, and so do you.

Today on the blog: Behavior Data You Can Trust: ABC, Frequency, Duration—Parent’s Guide

When schools talk about behavior data, parents often hear a lot of jargon but don’t see meaningful change. The truth is, the quality of data drives the quality of behavior plans. If the data is vague or inconsistent, the plan will be too. Parents have every right to understand what behavior data l...

Just because the school district says no doesn’t mean the conversation is over.

If your child was denied an IEP, you have rights and options. 💪

You can request additional evaluations, seek a second opinion, and challenge the district’s decision to ensure your child gets the support they need to thrive.

You know your child best, don’t stop advocating until they get the education they deserve.

Diving into Special Factors on an IEP

Over the next week, we will be taking a closer look at one of the most important yet often overlooked parts of the IEP: the Special Factors section. This section guides the IEP team in considering areas that can significantly impact a student’s access to learning, such as behavior, communication, assistive technology, and more.

Understanding how Special Factors are addressed is key to ensuring that your child’s IEP is truly individualized and supports their unique needs. Each factor provides an opportunity to identify the right tools, strategies, and services that can make a meaningful difference in your child’s progress at school.

Our upcoming posts will break down each area of Special Factors and explain what parents should look for, what questions to ask, and how to make sure nothing is missed in the planning process.

This section, while often gone over rather quickly in an IEP meeting, holds some serious weight to your child’s IEP. Understanding what these questions really mean allows you to be empowered and an equal voice at the table for your child.

If you would like help reviewing your child’s IEP or understanding how Special Factors apply to their situation, we offer free consultations to support families in navigating the process with clarity and confidence.
