The best practice is for the team members to
participate in the entire IEP. A general
education teacher who just comes in and
reports on how the student is doing in
class is not really participating in the
development of the IEP by listening to the
student’s skills and needs, and
contributing ideas as to how and if skills
can be addressed in the general
education setting.
And if the teacher does come in and leave
before the end of the meeting, again, you
must get a signed excusal form
