Graduation and Entitlement to a Free Appropriate Public Education
Contributed by Nancy Bowden, Director of Advocacy
Graduation is an awesome achievement for any student. While the majority of graduating seniors contemplate joining the workforce and/or continuing their educational quest at a local community college, technical college, trade school, seminary school, four-year college and/or university, roughly 17% to 20% of graduating seniors ponder Transition Services through their local educational authority and/or local school district. These are students who accessed the educational system with the support of an Individualized Education Program (IEP).
