Common questions about the IEP checklist

Is the IEP meeting checklist really free?+

Yes. Enter your email and I'll send the 3-page PDF straight to your inbox, plus a download link on the confirmation page. You can unsubscribe from follow-up emails anytime.

What should I bring to an IEP meeting?+

Bring your child's current and prior IEPs, evaluation reports, progress notes, work samples, any medical or therapy records, and a written list of questions and concerns. The checklist covers each item in detail.

Can I use this checklist for a 504 plan meeting?+

Most of the preparation steps apply to both IEP and 504 meetings. The checklist focuses on IEPs, but the organization and advocacy tips work for any school planning meeting.

Absolutely. I offer one-on-one IEP strategy sessions and meeting advocacy for parents who want personalized guidance. You can book a free 20-minute call to talk through your situation.
