Summertime brings a perfect opportunity to get your child’s paperwork organized. We have two forms that we use when organizing files. You can download them here:
unit-1-cs and following-units-2-cs
We recommend having an organizational system that works well with your style. One typical system is to purchase a large 3-ring binder and insert the papers in order. Make sure you have a tab for school communication and print your e-mails and document your phone conversations with your child’s school. Christina has a 31 tote bag and keeps file folders organized by current IEPs, evaluations, and all pertinent documentation. It’s easy to carry to a meeting and can quickly find the folder needed on a moment’s notice.
We have found a terrific resource in organizing your child’s paperwork from the Understood website. You can find it here https://www.understood.org/en/school-learning/special-services/ieps/how-to-organize-your-childs-iep-binder?utm_source=pinterest&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=understoodorg

Remember, all special education paperwork will be accompanied with its own DEC5. If you would like to refresh your knowledge each type of form, you can look through our archives on past posts or send us an e-mail with your question! We love connecting with you and helping in any way we are able!
Happy Summer!
With Gratitude,
Christina and Wendy
