Autistic at the IEP Table
Antilla-Garza, Julie
Educational Leadership, v78 n9 p61-64 Jul 2021
In early December 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, the Individualized Education Program (IEP) team at the author's son's school met with her online about supporting her autistic son in his general education social studies class. Looking at the many faces on the screen who had gathered to support her son, the author realized how grateful she was that they provided key accommodations for her as well. The author was diagnosed with autism three years ago, and wants to share what has helped and hindered her as she's worked with her son's team around the IEP table. It is hoped that this article will prompt educators to consider reasonable accommodations for adults, as well as for students, when gathering for IEP meetings.
