Our school sends them electronically for me. Sometimes we have to hound
them but I have gotten them. My husband has also scanned them into the
computer before. They're already on the computer so what should the big
deal be?

Snow is God's way of reminding us that beauty can be found even in the
coldest hearts.

> 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
