Document based IEP review

Check the pages you already have

The review reads the pages you upload, points to the wording behind each concern, and helps you prepare questions. It does not send anything to your school or decide a legal claim.

Common questions

What should I bring to a Preschool IEP meeting?

Bring the current or draft IEP, progress reports, proposed goals, the meeting notice, and evidence such as notes from arrival, circle time, toileting, meals, transitions, and play routines or examples of gestures, AAC, words, visuals, or sensory supports that help the child participate.

What should I ask before signing or agreeing?

Ask which pages will change, what data supports the decision, when you will receive the updated IEP, and what the school will put in Prior Written Notice if it refuses a request.

How should I prioritize Preschool meeting questions?

Start with the issue most connected to daily access, progress, or first school routines, play-based participation, communication, and early regulation. Keep the first ask narrow enough that the team can answer in writing.
