EDSS 541 RR29

The best practices for preparing for an IEP Meeting are:


  1. Review student's past evalutaion and arrange meetings at appropriate times for all team members.
  2. Provide sufficient advance notice of meeting date and time to students' parents.
  3. Arrange interpreters for parents/grandparents if have a language, sight, hearing limitations.
  4. Provide reliable data about the student's achievement, socialization, and behavior in classroom.
  5. Provide input from the perspective of a knowledgeable, skillful general education teacher.
  6. Be aware that some of the components of the IEP's implementation may be a part of your responsibility.
  7. Know that the IEP binds a school district, not an individual,to the provision of services, to which the parties have agreed.
  8. Don't worry that the student needs annual goals for all general education academic and performance areas.
  9. Consider the IEP a confidential document available on a need to know basis.
  10. Make sure each goal statement reflects measurable behavior meaningfully drawn from present performance levels and contains an appropriate time frame.  Don't depend on curriculum guides.
