Moving to new school districts and even states with an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) can be tough. We invite you to listen and learn about how to best navigate this process and maximize your student’s success. The presenter will cover common issues, including general statements, that parents might hear from an IEP team at a new school, effective ways to professionally push back on concerns, the process of transitioning to a new school in a different state, and what comparable education really means when moving with an IEP. This is a great resource for military families, and any planning a move with a school aged child. Parents will leave with a 4-page PDF (delivered digitally) that includes a sample email, checklists, and a timeline for moving.
