National IEP Writing Day is celebrated on the first Monday in April, and is a way of appreciating special education teachers who dedicate their lives to helping others. Special education teachers work with the school staff to create individualized IEPs for each qualifying student.
Please thank your school administrators and special ed teachers for their hard work and dedicated spirit in drafting IEPs and working with students.
* IEP stands for Individualized Education Program, which lays out the special education instruction and services for each student with disabilities.
