Reflective Framework for IEP Development

The “Reflective Framework for IEP Development” is designed to engage teams in a process that uses strengths-based data and observations to create Individualized Education Programs (IEP) for students that support access and progress with grade-level content standards. The intentional design of this document promotes the alignment between compliance and best practices. Each member of the IEP team is encouraged to use this document to ensure adherence to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and the Kansas Special Education Process Handbook, while designing educational programs to meet individual student needs.
