261. This IEP Section Should Never Be Empty


Listen Later

Parents and teachers—this one IEP mistake happens all the time.

The Parent Concerns section is often left blank or filled with "No concerns at this time."

That's not just wasted space—it's a missed opportunity to shape the entire IEP.

When the Parent Concerns section is used the right way, it does what IDEA law is meant to do: meet a child's unique needs and prepare them for further education, employment, and independent living.

That's why this section should never be empty.

Here's what I want you to do next:

👉 Parents: Go grab your child's IEP and look at the Parent Concerns section.

👉 Teachers: Check your students' IEPs today.

👉 Everyone at the IEP table: Ask yourself—does this section truly reflect what the child needs?

If you're ready for more than quick tips—if you want the full set of strategies I've built over 30 years—then step into the mentorship and become a Master IEP Coach®.

Whether you want to use the tools for your own family or start helping other families and schools while creating income from your IEP experience, this is where it all begins:
