Tokeneke Special Education Representatives

SE (Special Education)
TPTO Special Education Representatives are here to support our school community by helping examine opportunities for inclusion and provide support for parents of children with special needs. As a member of the Special Education Subcommittee, the representatives also help to identify any district level issues that may need to be escalated to CDSP, administration, and/or the Board of Education as guided by CDSP’s mission statement.

The IEP

Understand what the IEP includes and how often the document is reviewed.

Contents of the IEP
The IEP must contain information about your child and the educational program designed to meet his or her unique needs. This information includes:

  • Present Levels of  Academic and Functional Performance
  • Measurable Annual Goals
  • Short-term Instructional Objectives or Benchmarks derived from the Annual Educational Goals
  • Consideration of Special Factors (Behavior, Language, Visually Impaired, Deafness)
  • Recommended Special Education Services
  • Documentation of Program Considerations
  • Participation with Students without Disabilities
  • Modifications and Accommodations in General Education
  • Exit from Special Education Criteria
  • Participation in State and District-wide Assessments

The Annual Review
After your child has received special education services, an IEP meeting is held each year to review your child’s progress. During the annual review the team will:

  • Discuss your child’s progress toward his or her goals
  • Discuss the current supports that are in place
  • Determine goals for the following year
