Who should attend this webinar?

Parents who want to make the leap to a new school as smooth and supported as possible.

Why is the transition to a new school such a critical advocacy moment?

Because everything changes, such as school size, expectations, support systems, and without strong advocacy, services can fall through the cracks.

When should I start planning for the transition?

Ideally, in the spring (or earlier if possible). This session walks you through what to do now to prevent problems later.

What specific IEP changes should I consider?

We’ll cover common issues and how to adjust goals, accommodations, and services to meet those new demands.

What if my child struggles with organization or independence?

We’ll help you build a plan that includes executive function support and teaches your child how to advocate for themselves.
