For many, the intricacies of IEPs can be overwhelming, and often, important details in the plan may be crucial to a child’s educational success. In today’s show, we are breaking down some of those little details that are most often overlooked in IEPs. Join us to learn more!

Show Highlights:

  • What to consider in state testing accommodations, both typical assessments and modified/alternative assessments
  • Why assessments and accommodations should be discussed at every IEP meeting
  • Why it might be beneficial at times to opt out of assessments for your child
  • How physical education testing and district testing takes place
  • How to understand the terms “embedded” and “non-embedded” in regard to accommodations
  • How California has a specific Medi-Cal provision to pay for some related services in the IEP
  • How the “Special Factors” page may differ according to districts and states but has provisions for “low incidence” students
  • How to understand the assisted technology (AT) component of the IEP
