Preparing for a Productive School Meeting
A meeting is easier to prepare for when the questions are specific. Identify the part of the plan you want to discuss, the records that explain your concern, and the change you want the team to consider. We help families organize that material and clarify the role they want an advocate or attorney to play.
Education and IEP Issues We Help With
We guide families through both informal school meetings and more formal dispute processes.
