I am so thankful for the high school I go to because everyone cares about my IEP. I still have teachers from sophomore and freshman year still keeping in touch with me and my parents to see how I’m doing and I’m a junior now. All my teachers are really great and the ARD people are amazing as well. I use to go to a ghetto school in Snook Texas and no one cared, not one followed anything when they were suppose to it was terrible. I’m glad I’m at the school I am now
Wow you are so lucky that your teachers cared about you you are so lucky that your teachers care about you my teachers never cared about me in fact after I left High School not one of them asked me how about I doing I tried to reach out to them on social media they just blocked me they will give me a hard time in high school that shows you how special education system don't give a crap about special education students I'm not saying all special education teachers I like that you are very lucky that your teachers cared about you
The dont's! HAHAHA! The late teacher with the soda, the PLC guy was so upset on his way out. And the way they complained after the meeting... This was great. I've been in both meetings.
This is exactly how the meetings went at my sons school. Starting late, school staff not present, tons of interruption, unprofessional, staff on facebook during the meeting.
This has been my experience with every iep meeting I have attended for my daughter. The administration is never prepared, and this is a direct result of lack of leadership from the top down.
If it was as bad as the first part of the video you have grounds to sue. Legally, that meeting was a disaster (and obviously it was terrible professionally). Good luck in the future!
This happens at almost every IEP meeting I attend. Someone is always late or the general education teacher doesn't show because their replacement forgot.
This is sadly very true until parents take charge of the IEP process and hold them accountable. I found it useful to always demand copies of the proposed goals in advance of the meeting as that appeared to let them know I was going to be specifically asking about it and caused them to prepare better.
That interpreter-- like whoa. Terrible. Also, there should always be a Pre-ARD meeting between the teachers and the other people in the meeting prior to the parents arriving to ensure that everyone is there and has all of the things they are going to say and provide.
Even if you can't have everyone attend the meeting, you should still hold a professional meeting. You do not have to wait for everyone to show up before you get started. If someone can't show up, make sure you have a teacher's report and the Excusal form. If the parent doesn't agree, just table the meeting!
This is not at all how an IEP is handled for the demonstration provided with regards for my son. I have more of the Don'ts that includes the school Administrator. Then time is given to her to bring her up to speed, she happens to been the LEA rep of the last two meetings.
Why does the "good" example have them showing up with an already-written IEP for the parents to sign? Isn't it supposed to be a collaborative effort with the parents' input?
Some districts mandate that a draft be written prior to the meeting and shared with the parent before the meeting. Any and everything in the draft can be changed.
Make sure your not inadvertently targeting a specific group. If your wanted to showcase the non English speaker, share that upfront. It appears that minorities are always the one in need and as an educator that doesn't look good.
@@selinakyle3194 What should we do for those sped people with actual disabillities? Just get rid of it? Honestly there's barely any alternative for sped.
I'm 15 and my school placed me in an iep yesterday because of my autism that i got diagnosed with a week ago. So now I'm watching these videos
Great video. Great actors/actresses.

Yeah Julia ! That was fun ! Janet and Greg (aka: Mr. and Mrs. Hollywood !... hee hee !)
This is a well done video! Thanks for making it:-)
Glad you liked it!

Exactly. Agreed
Why did this start off EXACTLY like my last IEP meeting? 😞 It was rough.
Most of mines, and they simply laugh as if it is okay.
😍This is really powerful. What a great video!
Bruh no it ain’t😂🤦
@@black_mamba1871no one aksed you, brah.
My son had his first few IEP meeting's like the first example. Unsatisfactory. I'll be ready for the next one in a few weeks.
If it was as bad as the first part of the video you have grounds to sue. Legally, that meeting was a disaster (and obviously it was terrible professionally). Good luck in the future!
This video focused on teachers tasks and not interpreters what to do. Thank you.
Great teaching tool for staff. Thanks.
You are welcome!

This is all too real. Have. Been. In. This. Scenario. Terrible!!!!

This looks all too familiar! This is what the meetings look like in El Paso ISD! 😖
lol Those AT&T earings 😭
Love the FOHI hoodie!
If that's how it is suppose to be then my son got screwed glued and tattooed for four and half years.

So the second time, all the members were waiting patiently outside the door to walk in right away. Realistic?
omg, this is ridiculous and sad, I hope no parent or legal guardian ever has to go through this
It's like a freaking circus!

Wow
I would immediately ask for a Mediator
Just to ensure they do their job
5:39, anyone else notice the disabled chair?
DarkenDivine not cool.
All too familiar in mabank tx
Same thing in California San Marcos Unified School District is the same way
Why is Mr. Flowers dressed for a safari?
It's easy to complain about teachers being late for an after school meeting when you get to use the restroom whenever you want. JS

I Wish We Had A Cure To Autism And Other Chronic Illness.
I wish we had a cure for ignorance

worst comment I've seen today, thanks. Autistic kids don't need to be "cured" anymore than neurologically typical people do.
