I was glad to find this resource as I was new to special ed and getting organized early was necessary. Helping parents be organized and informed was also necessary.

As a parent of a child with ASD, I have learned the importance of keeping everything in order. This has made it extremely easy to keep everything IEP related in order. Great resource. Thanks so much!

WOW. So much in one pack. Everything I could think of is already in here and ready to use. Than you!

I was a little disappointed in this. I thought it would have more helpful information when having an ARD.

This is a great resource to share with parents before their IEP meeting. It’s a great way for families to keep all things organized and ready when they are needed. Thank you for creating.

This was very helpful as a parent to be able to keep track of all the services. It’s great for parents who are not familiar with special education.

This was such a great resource as I began navigating my autistic son’s REED and first IEP process. Such a different experience being on “the other side”. I was grateful to have this resource for guidance.
Breanna L. –
Love this resource! Thank you! 🙂
Tracy W. –
This is a great resource – my student’s families loved the parent binder.
Alysia B. –
This resource provides so much great information for parents of students with IEPs and 504s. I plan to make each of the parents on my caseload a binder this school year to give them a reference point of necessary information regarding the IEP process, provide them with a central location to keep their child’s related documents, and to show them that we are a team working together to facilitate learning for their child. This is a resource I would have loved to have had when starting out the referral process with my kids, just to be able to feel like I was on a level playing field with the staff of their school. Thank you!
Tara M. –
good resource
Kayla A. –
I use some pages of this to give parents during case conferences. They are always appreciative of the information and to have a place to take notes.
Renee C. –
