About Education Series: The ABCs of IEPs and 504s
Hickman Lowder education advocate Mary Jo O’Neill and attorney Janet Fleck Griffith will provide an overview of three different ways to get additional support for your student:

1. Interventions such as reading improvement plans
2. 504 Plans, and
3. Individualized Education Programs (IEP).

We will discuss the difference between the three options including legal origins, evaluation process, and plan structure. Last, we will share tips on how to know when your child needs additional support and which level of support is appropriate.
