Monitoring Progress on Your Child’s IEP Goals

Loading Events

Progress monitoring: What is it, and why does it matter?

Progress monitoring is how you and your child’s school know whether IEP goals are being met. You must understand if your child is making progress, how progress is being measured, how to ask for and look at data, and what to do if your child fails to make progress. Join Julie Gardner, Educational Specialist, and Audrey Vernick, PESA’s Director of Patient and Family Advocacy, as we tackle these topics and answer your questions.
This is Part 2 of a two-part webinar series on IEP goal development and progress monitoring.

She has a BA in Elementary Education and Specific Learning Disabilities (Flagler College) and an MA in Varying Exceptionalities (University of South Florida), and is currently in the EdD program at Slippery Rock University.

About Power Hour

We understand that being a parent of a child who is anywhere on the epilepsy surgery journey can be challenging and overwhelming at times. That’s why we’ve created our Power Hour workshops – to provide you with the tools and knowledge you need to empower yourself and your child.

These workshops are designed to be non-intimidating and easy to understand. We use real-life examples to make sure you can easily follow along and apply what you learn.

During the workshops, we’ll cover a variety of topics, including:

  • Understanding your child’s needs and the impact it may have on their development;
  • Navigating the educational system and finding the right resources for your child;
  • Building a support system for yourself and your family;
  • Self-care and stress management for parents of children with disabilities

…. and more!

By empowering yourself and your child, you can better advocate for their needs and create a more positive and fulfilling life for both of you.

Power Hour workshops are held online and can be attended from the comfort of your own home. They are open to all parents and primary caregivers of children anywhere on the epilepsy surgery journey. We hope you’ll join us for these valuable and informative workshops. Sign up today and take the first step toward empowerment!
