Frequently asked questions

How do I prepare for an IEP meeting as a parent?
Review the current IEP and recent progress, write down your specific concerns and goals ahead of time, and bring questions to ask. Beacon turns your child's details into a personalized prep sheet so you are not scrambling the night before.
What should I bring to an IEP meeting?
Your concerns in writing, any outside reports, work samples, and a list of questions. Beacon hands you a sheet you can print and bring, with your priorities and the questions worth asking already laid out.
What questions should I ask at my child's IEP meeting?
Ask how each goal will be measured, whether a support is an accommodation or a modification, and what the data shows. Beacon builds your question list around your child's actual situation, not a generic template.
Can I bring someone with me to the IEP meeting?
Yes, you have the right to bring an advocate, a family member, or a private therapist. Your prep sheet helps whoever comes with you understand your priorities going in.
Is the IEP prep tool free and do I need an account?
You can build one prep sheet free with no account. A free account gives you one per tool, Standard gives 3 a month, and Plus or Annual is unlimited.
