Event Description:

This session hosted by Advocate, Liz Capone, will feature all things progress reports. WHY? Because it’s the time of year when the first IEP progress report of the school year comes home. You read terms such as baseline data, making sufficient progress, not yet introduced, etc. Liz will break these all down and discuss what goes into writing IEP progress reports, what questions you may have about the data you receive, and how you can use the information/data you are assembling at home to check for alignment with what the school is sharing.
