IEP

What is your most stressful part of the IEP for you to deal with or work on?

The most stressful part of writing an IEP for me is getting the necessary information from the student's gen ed teachers. There are times when I have to hunt teachers down to get their input.  I have begged and pleaded with usually the same one or two teachers and tried to make them understand that I cannot do my job without them doing theirs...our director has even had to send out emails regarding personal liability...to little avail :(

Do you have someone on your campus that you can go to for assistance and support in writing the IEP?

We have three sped teachers on campus; between the three of us we can usually come up with a correct answer without the need for someone at the district office.  However, at the DO, we have a specialist that is really good about answering phone calls and responding to emails...it's a pretty good support system :)
