    Research consistently shows that parent participation improves IEP outcomes. But 'participation' doesn't just mean showing up — it means showing up prepared. The problem is, most parents have no benchmark for what 'prepared' actually looks like.

    What the Quiz Measures

    The IEP Readiness Quiz scores you across five categories: Documentation (do you have your paperwork?), Knowledge (do you understand your child's current goals?), Evidence (have you been tracking accommodations?), Legal Awareness (do you know your rights?), and Preparation (have you done the pre-meeting work?).

    • 10 yes/no questions — takes under 2 minutes
    • Instant score from 0 to 100
    • Personalized action items based on your weak areas
    • Links to specific tools that address each gap
    • No account required to take the quiz

    Why Scores Matter

    A parent who scores 40 isn't a bad parent — they're a parent who hasn't been given the right tools. The quiz isn't a judgment; it's a roadmap. Every 'no' answer maps to a specific action you can take before your next meeting to dramatically improve your position at the table.

    What Parents Say After Taking the Quiz

    The most common reaction is 'I didn't know I was supposed to be doing that.' Whether it's requesting progress reports in advance, tracking accommodation compliance daily, or knowing you can bring a support person — these are things every parent should know but most aren't told.

    "I scored a 35 on my first try. By my next IEP meeting, I was at 90. The difference in how the school treated me was night and day."
