Planning a Life:
Making the Most out of High School

A Transition Conference

High school is a time when all students need to be actively involved in planning for their future. At this critical juncture, students and families must be informed, proactive, involved and hopeful. The transition process can be overwhelming for families because resources and information on transition planning are often difficult to find.

Planning a Life: Making the Most out of High School is packed with Transition planning information and resources for and about students in special education ages 15-22. Transition planning needs to be on schedule to insure a systematic and purposeful educational experience.

Plan now to attend and find out "what you need to know, when you need to ask about it and who you need to go to for answers." Our goal is to establish a statewide network of proactive knowledgeable parents working in partnership with local schools to develop individualized Transition goals in the IEP.

Registration for this conference is $100. Space is limited. FREE registration for parents of Boston Public School students age 14-22.
