Collaborative, Creative Support Systems
An Individualized Education Program (IEP) is designed for students with developmental, learning, or maturational challenges who attend public school. The IEP process creates an opportunity for teachers, parents, school administrators, related services personnel, and students (when appropriate) to meet and work together to improve a child’s achievement in school. A strong IEP is the cornerstone of a quality education for each child who qualifies for special education services through a school district.
What We Do
Barbara Joffe, MA, and her team of special education experts work alongside parents, teachers, and therapists to design an IEP that is both challenging and manageable for your child or teen. Barbara also helps parents navigate additional services outside of school to support continued growth and progress. While IEP meetings are conducted annually, true IEP teamwork is ongoing to ensure that every child is growing, learning, and thriving at school. IEP meetings should always be positive and fully focused on the unique strengths and challenges of your child.
In cases where an IEP cannot be implemented, a 504 Plan provides specific accommodations for students who need extra support to succeed within the general education classroom.
