Secondary Individualized Education Programs (IEPs)

IEP Teams must ensure that students with disabilities have an Individualized Education Program that provides for access, involvement and progress in the general education curriculum.  When developing the IEP, the IEP team should keep as its focal point the RI CCSS that all students including students with disabilities are required to meet.  An IEP aligned to the CCSS, connects a student’s learning to grade level standards and evaluates progress through the lens of the general education curriculum, standards, assessment anchors and curriculum framework.
