IEP= I EXPECT PROGRESS

IEP + I Expect Progress
Monthly Action Plan for Parents

Accountability of your child's IEP is a MUST!

Dear Parent,
You have multiple responsibilities running a family with special needs and keeping up with special education is a key to success that is often overlooked. Spending just 30 minutes per month will help you stay actively involved in your child's education. Here's the best part, you don't have to remember what to do each month and question if your doing enough. Through this new special education help program, I will call you. Every month we will work through next steps in your child's education.Together we will review goals and develop simple, effective "to do" tasks to keep you involved and confident in your child's education. I look forward to becoming part of your child's team and helping you lead the team towards goal achievement.

Study: Bullying more likely for children with mental-health disorders

First-graders with depression or anxiety are more likely to be regularly bullied by the time they reach the third grade, according to a Canadian study. Physically aggressive first-graders were found likely to become anxious or depressed by the third grade and also be bullied, researchers found. "Children's early mental-health problems can set the stage for abuse by their peers," said lead researcher Bonnie Leadbeater, a psychology professor at the University of Victoria, located in British Columbia. "Treating children's mental-health problems may go a long way toward reducing bullying." ScienceDaily (5/18)
