How tonight’s discussion can help you navigate your child’s journey.

Every student with an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and their parents will face a process to transition from high school. We will address your concerns about preparing a student with an IEP for a successful transition from high school to postsecondary education, employment, and independent living. Dr. Kardos is an expert in evaluating, assessing, and implementing transition plans, no matter the student’s direction.

We look forward to our conversation with Dr. Kardos to discuss the process, what would work best based on the students’ needs, and the results from a transition assessment.
