    Special Education Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: What do I do if I have concerns about my child’s IEP?

    A: First contact your child’s case manager. If you are unsure of who that may be, contact the Special Education Department.

    Q: What is the role of the case manager?

    A: The case manager is the first point of contact. They help develop the IEP, answer questions, and serve as an advocate for your child.

    Q: What if the case manager can’t help?

    A: The case manager will work with the Department Chair. If the Department Chair can’t resolve the problem, contact will be made with either one of the principals or the Director of Educational Services.

    Q: What do I do if I have a question regarding my child's progress in one of their classes?

    A: Email the teacher of record directly with any question. They should respond within 24 hours. You can find their email addresses on the Corona Staff Directory. Make sure to include the case manager in the email as well, in case problems arise.

    Q: What are the differences between accommodations and modifications?

    A: Accommodations do not fundamentally alter or lower the class standard. Modifications are changes in the classroom instruction or expectations which DO fundamentally alter or lower the standard or expectations of the instructional objectives. All accommodations and modifications need to be agreed upon by the IEP team and relate to a student’s disability.
