IEP

[Guest guest]

First I want to welcome all the new members. I'm glad you were able to find

this group. I've been part of this group since 2001 when I found out my son

Brannon had mds. He just turned 6 yrs old.

Today I had an IEP meeting for Brannon. This was about him moving from Pre

school to Kindergarten. The IEP plan sounds good so far. They have him being

in 3 different classrooms. He'll be in regular special ed, transitional

kindergarten and regular kindergarten. The beginning of the new school year

is when we'll determine how many hours he'll be in each one. Right now their

saying 3 hrs in the special ed and 3 hrs in transitional kindergarten. The

hours may change by his needs. It'll go by whether or not he needs more one

or one or if he can do okay in a classroom of 10 students. He goes to lunch,

gym, library, music and field trips with the reg kindergarten class. He'll

still receive OT and PT. He'll still have the same bus driver, but they

come an hour early to pick him up for Kindergarten. I'm all excited and can

t wait to see how he does. I'm sure him and Gabby (his sister) will miss

being the same classroom with each other or they may like it that way HAHA.
