Waiting for the school to suggest testing? Don’t. If your child is struggling, YOU can request an IEP evaluation — in writing. Not a meeting. Not a conversation. A written request. #IEPHelp #SpecialEdSupport #AdvocateForYourChild #ParentEmpowerment #InclusiveEducation

If homework reinforces learning, great. If it reinforces frustration, shutdown, or family conflict — we need a better plan. Especially for our IEP kids. #SpecialEd #IEP #DisabilityAdvocacy #Neurodiversity #theiepmom

The whole purpose of an IEP is to prepare students for further education, independence and employment. #iep #AdvocateForYourChild #InclusiveEducation #SpecialEd #theiepmom

Ok Elearning is better than sending our kids to the bus stop in -30, but also elearning is not appropriate for all learners. #elearning #specialeducation #iep #parentsoftiktok
