Special Education Consulting
Has This Ever Happened to You?
- Your child hasn’t been found eligible for special education services, but has been receiving low performing academic scores and/or has been identified as a “behavior problem.”
- You believe your child might need additional help to bridge gaps.
- Your child has been promised special education services and related services, accommodations and/or modifications that are NOT being rendered.
- Your child is struggling to earn average grades to pass his or her classes, even with a great amount of support from yourself, yet your school district deems your child ineligible for special education services.
- Do you question whether the IEP developed for your child has been designed to fit the specific unique needs of your child?
- As a parent you are unfamiliar with the timelines related to each step of the IEP process.
- Have you felt outnumbered by the number of district personnel at your IEP meetings? Is there an incomplete IEP Team?
- Are there any accommodations or modifications implemented into your child’s IEP that your school district has failed to provide?
- Do you leave your IEP meeting emotionally drained wondering what just happened?
