Please join Parent Training Specialist, Miss Glenesha Milner, on Thursday, September 19th at 1 PM EST for an informative session covering key topics related to student transitions. We will explore vocational and personal interest inventories, the importance of self-advocacy, and the Age of Majority/guardianship. Additionally, we’ll discuss the various pathways students can take to earn a standard diploma, including those designed specifically for students with disabilities, as the “special diploma” was phased out in 2012. In the final part of the session, we’ll clarify the Transition IEP, a crucial tool for students aged 12-18/22 (depending on graduation deferral). This student-centered IEP is designed to map out a multi-year pathway for a successful transition from high school to post-secondary opportunities. We’ll talk about how to determine which diploma pathway aligns best with the student’s future goals and how to support them throughout this journey.
