When you homeschool a child with a disability, you become the whole team — teacher, case manager, data-keeper, and advocate. This 39-page fillable plan gives you one place to capture what the school plan said, decide what support your child needs now, track real progress, and keep the records that matter later.
Two paths, one plan. A Start Here guide helps you decide whether your child needs 504-level support (accommodations), IEP-level support (goals, data, services), or both. Every page is tagged, so you only use what fits.
