IEP Drop-in At Fair-Oak Elementary


Yesterday was a great day. I was able to participate in an IEP meeting at Fair-Oak Elementary. The student used to be one of mine as a 3-year-old! Throughout the meeting it was evident that every member of the team genuinely cared about the student and his progress. It was as if he was centered in the circle of chairs to the right. Undoubtedly, each educator put a lot of thought, planning, and collaboration time in prior to the meeting as each communicated professionally and respectfully with knowledge about the student's strengths, weaknesses and needs. Various forms of assessment results were presented supporting the team's recommendations. The parents left the meeting confident that the team had developed the best plan possible to meet their child's educational needs. Great meeting!
