IEP Inbox: Can the School Make Decisions Without Me?
If you’ve ever felt sidelined in the IEP process, this episode is for you. We’re unpacking what IDEA actually says about parent participation, when schools can legally move forward without you, and how to respond if it happens. You’ll walk away with language to use, steps to take, and one quick way to confirm your seat at the table—plus a handout to help you advocate with clarity.
