Navigating the world of IEPs (Individualized Education Programs) and 504 Plans can be overwhelming for parents and educators alike. Both IEPs and 504 plans provide essential educational support but differ in their goals, services, eligibility, and duration. IEPs offer specialized instruction with specific objectives and progress monitoring from pre-K through high school, while 504 plans ensure access and equity and can extend through college.
In this episode, Annette Hines and April Rehrig, the founder of Rise Educational Advocacy and Consulting, discuss the strengths and weaknesses of IEPs and 504 plans. April emphasizes the importance of positive language in IEP meetings, advocating for strength-based approaches, and involving students and parents in the planning process. By focusing on strengths, setting high expectations, and fostering a collaborative environment, parents and educators can help students reach their full potential.
