Don't let a quick "NO" end the ESY conversation!
Karen reminds parents to advocate confidently when they believe their child needs Extended School Year (ESY) services.
ESY decisions should be based on your child's individual needs—not staffing challenges, convenience, or a district's preferred summer schedule.
If you believe ESY is necessary, bring your concerns, review your child's progress data, and ask the IEP team to explain its decision.
Your child's needs deserve a meaningful discussion, not an automatic dismissal!
