Is something missing from your child's IEP?

Do you look at your child's IEP and feel like it's too vague, something seems to be missing, or the goals are not measurable? Find out what might be missing.

What's missing in your child's IEP?

Does your child's IEP include information relating to enabling your son/daughter to be involved in and progress in the general education curriculum?

Does your child's IEP contain a statement of measurable goals?  Including academic and functional?  These goals should be designed to involve in and make progress in  the general education curriculum and meet each additional educational need.

Too many times, parent's are told "your child can't learn".  "Your child will never be able to learn". Have you been told this by others on the PPT TEAM?

Does your child's IEP and/or daily schedule not list even one academic goal?  Is your child sitting in the Special Ed Resource Room (as it's called) most of the day and you have no idea what your child is doing there, and when you ask you don't get a straight answer?

Does your child's IEP make the grade?  Does it include everything the law requires?  If you feel confident in your advocacy abilities, but are unsure about IEP legal requirements then get a complete S.M.A.R.T. IEP review from Advocate with Faith today.

Bill I have some possible good news for you. After reading this, I stopped by the Village Market onRead More my way home from a slow, rainy day in the Center in hopes of picking up some kumquats for Filbert. They are out. So it sounds like some of our fellow Wiltonians are laying kumquats around town. I just hope the rain has not scared Filbert. Best to you and your family. I shall pray for you in Church this weekend.

You miss the DAZE of George W?, failing banks, auto industry going under, record high homeRead More forclosures and unemployment, etc etc. Obama is getting it right! BOSTON (Reuters) - The average 401(k) retirement balance for U.S. workers hit a record high of $80,900 in the first quarter, a growth spurt of 75 percent since the stock market's nadir in March 2009, Fidelity Investments said on Thursday based on a survey of its accounts. Most of the recovery is linked to a stock market rally that has lifted the broad S&P 500 Index 145 percent since the close of trading on March 9, 2009. The 401(k) recovery looks even better for workers 55 and older, according to Boston-based Fidelity, the largest U.S. administrator of 401(k) retirement plans. Those pre-retirement workers have seen their average balance nearly double to $255,000 since the first quarter of 2009 when the average balance was $130,700. The analysis covers people who have been with their current employer 10 or more years, Fidelity said.

I did find the remains of a small cat, if anyone wants that. Free.

British soldier was hacked to death with a machete. The soldier is not allowed to have a gun but theRead More terrorists had a firearm but chose to behead the soldier. The suspects spoke to camera after attack. “We swear by Almighty Allah, we will never stop fighting you until you leave us alone. The only reasons we killed this man is because Muslims are dying daily. This British soldier is an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. We apologize that woman had to see this today, but in our lands our women have to see the same. You people will never be safe. Remove your government. They don’t care about you.”

Israel knows who their enemy is and are not afraid to call them out. After 4 Americans were killedRead More by terrorists in Benghazi, when violence in the Middle East was raging, President Obama in partnership with Hillary Clinton spent $70,000 in taxpayer money on a commercial that aired on Pakistani television apologizing for the "video." We are sorry. We are going to get the man who made the video who exercised freedom of speech and arrest him. Any terrorist suspects questioned yet?
