IEP meetings aren’t only way to get better schooling for IEP student in Missouri
Parents who struggle with the public school often get the “spin” from the building staff and don’t realize that often the power to take more control of the problem situation is outside the district. Many entities exist that are ready to accept reports of public institutions that are not providing adequate access or appropriate programming.
Advocates at TheIEPCenter.com™ support parents who have schooling problems by providing information so they can advocate for the child with special needs. Schools often don’t put plans into place legitimately unless a parent pursues action. Action can involve systems outside of the school district. It’s what a parent doesn’t know that can deprive children of needed services. Our advocate are available to participate in school meetings after consult*.
Don’t be bamboozled! Waiting and hoping for problems to go away allows our children to regress. Hoping the problem will go away will only delay getting the problem addressed. Waiting too long to address concerns eliminates opportunities for correction.

IEP school info for Missouri parents
Schools often don’t put legitimate, appropriate programming in place unless a parent pursues action. Many parents are contacting us to share accounts of student’s who now attend in a new building but the positive behavior strategies mistakenly aren’t implemented from the previous year, although though the IEP continues in effect.
Public school staff often don’t understand the importance of proactively implementing behavior plans and accommodations. Many students with ADD or ADHD need time for extra movement; or to do their desk work while standing. Advocates at TheIEPCenter.com™ help parents solve IEP problems by providing information so the parent can advocate for the child with special needs. Schools often don’t put plans into place legitimately unless a parent pursues action. Educational “systems” move slowly. It’s what a parent doesn’t know that can deprive children of needed services. We go to IEP meetings with parents.

Intimidated and manipulated in IEP meeting in Missouri
Several educators surround the parent and present their plan for the child for the year, based on the school’s staff schedules and the number of other children who also need services.
The parent asks for additional time in a service area and is quickly told that wouldn’t fit with the schedule. Parent expresses concern that the child is getting left behind.
This was another “rubber stamped” meeting where the educators worked to just get through and over the meeting. As long as the parent is not assertive, the student will likely stagnate.
The March 2017 US Supreme Court decision was clear; children with IEPs are to have challenging objectives.
