Parent IEP Meeting Binder Printable, Special Education Notes, Checklists and Personal Records PDF

IEP meeting papers and dates can end up in different folders and notebooks. This printable from DailyWellJournals gives a parent one place to keep personal notes, checklists and records for a school IEP meeting or another school meeting about a child's supports.

You can use these pages to organize your own notes before, during and after the meeting. This booklet does not explain legal differences or decide which process applies.

Who this is for

Parents and guardians who want to organize their own notes and records for a school IEP meeting or another school meeting about their child's supports.

What is included

Printable pages for parent personal recordkeeping, including:

• A child snapshot for strengths, what helps, communication preferences and concerns you want to raise
• School and team contacts
• A year-at-a-glance calendar for meetings and announced dates you have noted
• A meeting-prep checklist for what to gather and what you want to understand
• A page for questions you want to ask
• A have/need list for evaluations already given to you, prior meeting notes, work samples and correspondence
• A personal supports and accommodations log. Use it for what you understand is currently in place, what you have observed and questions you want to ask. This is your record of an existing plan, not the official plan.
• A personal goals observation log. Use it for stated goals you heard or read, dated observations and questions you want to ask. Your entries do not become IEP goals.
• Repeatable meeting notes with the date, attendees, topics, what you heard and follow-ups. These are your notes, not official minutes.
• A follow-up action tracker
• A communication log with the school
• A related services session log. Use it for your own notes of the date, the service or provider, what you saw or heard, and follow-ups for you. This is your personal notes page, not an official therapy or service record.
• A how-to page and a contents list. Extra notes are also included.
