The second step is the actual evaluations. The school has a timeline to get your child assessed. After the evaluation, they determine eligibility based on 13 codes under IDEA. Once eligibility is determined, they must create and develop the IEP. You, as a member of the IEP team, have some input and say when they develop the IEP.
Implementing the IEP and Monitoring Progress
The fourth step is implementing the IEP. It's one thing to have it all nice and in writing, but they must implement the IEP, and your child must receive their services and accommodations. The next step is monitoring progress and reviewing progress. You should continuously look at your child's homework and the work they bring home, and review it to see if you recognize any patterns and progress.
Annual Review and Reevaluation
The sixth step is your annual review. At the end of the year, you should be prepared and ready to discuss what worked, what did not work, and what changes you would like to see. The last step is reevaluation, where you must reevaluate your child's progress and ensure they are on the right track.
