IEP planner for parents, The Parent's Paper Trail, tablet and print, undated

Before the meeting

Fill in a one-page child snapshot, your concerns and your questions. You walk in with facts and dates instead of the speech you rehearsed in the car.

During and after

  • Meeting notes: who said what, and what was agreed.
  • Communication log: every call and email, dated.
  • Goal progress: what the IEP aims for and what is really happening.
  • Services owed: log the sessions delivered against what was promised.

When you need an answer in writing

Eight ready-to-send letters cover the moments parents get stuck: asking for an evaluation, a meeting, prior written notice after a verbal no, records, service logs, an independent evaluation, compensatory services, and disagreeing in writing. You fill in the blanks. None of them needs a lawyer.

Tablet or print

Use the tablet edition (light or dark, 969 tappable links) or print the pages in US Letter or A4. A 34-page Start Here guide shows you how to fill in the key pages, with examples.

Quick answers

Is this legal advice?

No. It is educational material about federal law (IDEA and Section 504), with every claim traced to its source.

Does it cover 504 plans?

Yes. Section 01 explains IEP vs 504, and the pages work for both.

Do I need a printer?

No. The tablet edition works on its own.
