IEP meeting
Jackson's IEP meeting was today. This is the meeting where all of his team members - teacher, therapists, nurse, administrators - meet to discuss what he has accomplished in the past year and to set goals for the coming year. There's no better way to spend an afternoon than by sitting and listening to people gush over how wonderful and smart he is
. He's done an outstanding job of accomplishing the goals set for him a year ago, and I liked the future goals that his team came up with as well.
We also spent some time talking about potential KINDERGARTEN sites for him! I can hardly believe he's about to start Kindergarten. When did my little baby grow into this boy?! There are two possible classes being looked at for him, and we should find out which he will be placed into by the beginning of June. One of the classes is a class specifically for children that use communication devices, and Marshall and I are leaning strongly towards that class for him. Unfortunately we don't get much say - it depends on a lot of other factors, and this class (called "the AAC class") will have it's own application process. It sounds like his team is leaning towards this class as well but we have to wait and see what the district decides after we submit all his information.
It was a very good meeting overall. Our district has definitely done right by him so far, they genuinely seem to care about him and want the best for him. Hopefully that extends to putting him into the communication/technology class!
On a final note, I have to give a shout out to my babies - they were kind enough to nap for the entire 2.5 hour meeting. They are little rock stars
