The vision statement required on page one of the Massachusetts IEP is a description that draws a picture of what your child's desired outcomes will be for the future. Your child's vision should address outcomes for the next year, five years, ten years and after graduation. The outcomes addressed in your child's vision should include participation in school and in the community, continuing education after high school, independent living and economic self-sufficiency. Your vision should guide the Team throughout the entire IEP development process in order to create a program that will bring your child closer to that vision in a meaningful way.

Dare to Dream!
