Navigating the Standards-Based Individualized Education Program (SB IEP) Process for Students with Dyslexia

Participants will:
• Recognize key federal and state laws, regulations, and guidance that direct IEP development and support students with dyslexia.
• Identify the critical role of the enrolled grade-level general education curriculum in shaping the SB IEP process.
• Develop comprehensive present levels of academic achievement and functional performance (PLAAFP) statements using multiple data sources, including baseline data for identified areas of need and the impact of dyslexia on a student’s access to and progress in the general curriculum.
• Write measurable annual goals aligned with the PLAAFP and inform the specially designed instruction (SDI) required to support student success.
• Design effective data collection methods to monitor progress on annual goals and establish systems for reporting progress to families.
