Hi Everyone,
Our elder son is now in 7th grade & we would like for him to take a more
active role in his IEPs.
We get print copies of the reports, goals, & final IEP document.
He can't read the print.
If we didn't speak English, is it standard practice for these to be
translated into the family's native language?
If so, then along that line of reasoning, it would seem like the district
should be required to provide these in an understandable/accessible format.
Providing an electronic Word/Text version would be a little extra work, but
certainly seems do-able.
I would appreciate some insights into how others have approached this.
Thanks
Eric
