Individualized Education Programs”. When a child is eligible for special education services in the public school setting, an Individualized Education Plan must be written. The IEP covers various areas including a child’s present levels of performance, identified measurable annual goals, outlines related services, and discusses accommodations/modifications.
Please read about the child below and answer the questions that follow in a 2-3 page double spaced format.
