An Invitation to Parents: Join Our Expanded Beta Testing Phase

As the COO of IEP Sensei, I am proud to share an important opportunity for parents navigating the special education landscape. We are expanding our beta testing, and we invite you to participate. Your insights are invaluable as we strive to enhance the educational experience for children with IEPs.

As we gear up for back-to-school season, we currently have spaces available for parents who wish to gain a deeper understanding of their child’s IEP before the upcoming school year. This initiative not only allows you to advocate more effectively for your child’s educational needs but also provides a complimentary report on your child’s most recent IEP (or draft IEP), along with a personalized consultation to discuss it.

Your voice is vital in shaping a collaborative approach between parents and schools, ultimately ensuring our children receive the best possible education and support they deserve.

I look forward to working together to make a meaningful impact in the lives of our children and their educational journeys. Thank you for your commitment to this important work

Together, we can make a difference!

Direct Communication: Your child should have opportunities for direct communication with peers and teachers in the same communication mode.

Qualified Staff: Teachers and interpreters must be certified and trained to work with DHH students.
Assistive Technology: Schools must provide and support hearing aids, FM systems, and other assistive listening devices as needed.
Parental Involvement: You must be involved in all decisions and provided information in a language or mode you understand.

🧾 IEP & Evaluation

Full & Individual Evaluation (FIE): Must assess your child’s communication, language, and hearing needs.

IEP Team: Must include specialists (e.g., audiologists, DHH teachers, speech-language pathologists) who understand your child’s needs.
Goals & Services: The IEP must include specific goals and services for communication, hearing, and academic success.
