Do you know what inclusion really means for your child’s IEP?👇

Inclusion isn’t just about physical placement — it’s about participation. It means your child is actively engaged, learning, and contributing alongside their peers, not just sitting in the same room. LRE — Least Restrictive Environment — means your child has a legal right to be educated alongside their peers with the right supports in place. Watch this to understand what that looks like in a real classroom — REMEMBER to advocate for it at your next IEP meeting. 💪

Did you know a student’s behavior can impact their placement? 😮

But schools have to follow a 4-part legal test, commonly referred as the Rachel H. test before making that call.

Save this for your next IEP meeting! 📌

PSA: i-Ready is not peer-reviewed. That means its claims about student learning and growth have never been independently verified by outside researchers.

Schools are making major instructional decisions based on this — and parents deserve to know. 👀

Share this with every parent you know. The more people who ask questions, the harder it is to ignore.

Your child has rights. But you need the receipts to prove it. 🗂️

Watch this before you consider filing for due process.

🚨 Districts are NOT telling you the whole truth about LRE and 1:1 aides.

The Least Restrictive Environment doesn’t mean your child can’t have a 1:1 — it means they deserve to learn alongside their peers WITH the right supports in place.

If an IEP team is using “LRE” as a reason to deny your child a 1:1, that’s a red flag. 🚩

Know your rights. Push back. Your child deserves both support AND inclusion — not one or the other.

📌 Save this. Share it with a parent who needs it.

Walking into school meetings can feel overwhelming—but a few small shifts can make a big difference 💙

Here’s how to avoid common mistakes and feel more confident:

✨ Going in unprepared → Try this:
Jot down your questions, concerns, and goals ahead of time 📝 Even a simple list helps you stay focused.

💡 Assuming the school knows best → Remember this:
They’re the experts in education, but you’re the expert on your child 👨‍👩‍👧 Trust your voice and share what matters most.

📄 Not requesting written documentation → Do this:
Ask for copies of plans, notes, and decisions. Keeping everything in writing helps you stay organized and protected.

❓ Not asking questions → Speak up:
If something doesn’t make sense, ask! There are no “bad” questions when it comes to your child’s needs.

You’ve got this 💪
You have more power in the process than you think ✨
