Question:

Who can attend an IEP team meeting?

Answer:

In Maryland, parents have the right to bring professionals who work with their child outside of school, such as psychologists or social workers, to an Individualized Education Program (IEP) team meeting. Parents should speak up and offer their opinions and perspectives during the meeting, and their opinions should be recorded in the meeting minutes, especially if they disagree with the team’s decisions.
