Challenge
- 01Each campus had one or two exceptional children teachers, many in their first three years, with little time for coaching.
- 02Prior written notices varied by campus and often omitted required elements.
- 03The network's central special education team of three could not review every draft before meetings.
Approach
- 01Connected the network's SIS and IEP system exports and set up Google sign-on for staff.
- 02Used TPA Ventures' prior written notice drafts against the seven elements of 34 CFR § 300.503(b).
- 03Collected general education teacher input through Google Classroom ahead of each meeting.
- 04Central staff reviewed flagged drafts rather than every draft.

“Our newer teachers write stronger goals now because the draft shows them what measurable looks like for their own students.”
TPA Ventures drafts; your team decides. Every goal, accommodation and notice is reviewed and finalized by certified staff and parents. TPA Ventures does not make eligibility or placement determinations and does not replace the IEP team required by 34 CFR § 300.321.
