Who decided every IEP goal needs to be 70%?
Karen challenges the habit of writing IEP goals around standard percentages instead of focusing on what is actually appropriate for each student.
For one child, meaningful progress might mean advancing two reading levels. For another, it might mean reducing a challenging behavior from six times a week to two.
The “A” in FAPE stands for APPROPRIATE—not one-size-fits-all!
IEP goals should be individualized, measurable, and designed to support progress appropriate in light of each child's unique circumstances.
