IEPs
Special education documents
IEPs are Individualized Education Programs—legally mandated plans for students with disabilities in U.S. public schools.
Each IEP outlines specific learning goals, accommodations, and services tailored to a student's needs: The IEP meeting is scheduled for next week.
Parents, teachers, and specialists collaborate to develop and review these documents annually.
The singular IEP is more common than the plural.
