Understanding the Changes to the IEP Document
At the beginning of the 2024-25 academic year, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) released a new Individualized Education Program (IEP) document to be used in schools and districts across the state, which was implemented at Chelmsford Public Schools.
Your child’s education team is committed to providing the best possible support and services for your child and the new IEP form is designed to enhance that commitment. Below, please find a parent letter, as well as presentation slides and a video highlighting the changes DESE has made to the IEP Document.
