Re: Questions about special ed and IEP's
Posted by: counselor in NJ on 6/23/09
I am an elementary counselor and I have nothing to do with the IEP's
except that I go to the initial meeting if I am working with the
child who is being evaluated by the child study team. At my school
the child study team works primarily with the IEP process and
obviously the students with the IEP's. You will learn a majority of
what you need to learn on the job. Don't let the last post upset
you. You will be fine!
