Failed Abductions

By

Most failed child abductions failed because of the kids’ actions to save themselves. An adult stepping in to help foiled only 16% of the cases.

Organization: Miscellaneous Folder

By

When creating an organizational system, never have a “miscellaneous” folder. Most kids that do have a “miscellaneous” folder end up having random papers in there. Then the student doesn’t know what is in there later because it is unorganized. Each sheet of paper should have its own place to go.

Difference Between 504 Plan and IEP

By

The 504 is ideal for your child if he or she can make progress with some special accommodations. This would not be measured for gains and administered by the school’s general education department. However if your child needs a structured environment and specialized learning plan with measured gains, then the IEP is probably your best option. The school’s special education department would run this option.

Individual Education Plans (IEP’s)

By

Individual Education Plans (IEP’s) are covered under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1975. This act requires all 50 states to ensure a free appropriate public education to all qualifying students no matter what their disabilities are. It says that school systems must provide a proper individually tailored education, designed specifically for the individual. Each eligible student must be appropriately taught whether there is funding or not and by any means necessary.

The requirements of an IEP go a step further than 504 plans in that they require not only equal access, but also delivery of a proper education. The schools have to prove that eligible students have made academic progress. IEP’s include not only a plan of action but specific reports to show the amount of progress. The school’s special education department is in charge of IEP’s. If you feel that your child may require additional services beyond a 504 plan, then you may want to consider an IEP.
