Last week I had Audrey’s transition meeting with the school district. Holy information! Lots to learn on this IEP adventure that is for sure.
Good news: her assessment is scheduled for next week already!
Not so good news: the program I have been wanting her to attend is currently full.
I have always been a planner so not knowing where she will end up this coming January is something that is hard for me to grasp. I am usually proactive when it comes to Audrey’s services… not knowing her placement leaves very little for me to do. I should receive her IEP date next week after the assessment (should be around her birthday) and you bet I will be prepared as I possibly can be.
I signed up for a parent IEP training for the end of November through a local family resource organization to make sure I know what I’m walking into!
Audrey is continuing to thrive with all the additional therapy she has been getting. I’m hopeful that the therapists I have recently met will complete those puzzle pieces we have been putting together this past year. I know with the holidays and cold and flu season starting, therapy and appointments often get cancelled or rescheduled so I am trying to keep everything on track! (or as much as humanly possible).
Trying to fit in as many family fun activities as well. We took family pictures this past weekend and have a fun Halloween filled weekend up ahead. Having something to look forward to really helps push past those hard days of denial letters, doctor visits and endless emails to therapists and providers.
