Parent Resources

 

Transition is an integral part of a student's high school and post-high school experience. Within this comes many unknowns and questions when the process starts. Below is a helpful list of resources and information about this exciting and challenging time in a student's life. 

Frequently Asked Questions?

 

What is transition and who can help?  Transition is a coordinated set of activities for a child with a disability. The IEP case manager, Transition Coordinator, and IEP team support this process with the student and their family as they navigate through high school. 

 

When does the transition planning start?  Transition planning typically starts at age 14 and is required by law to begin no later than age 16 with a statement of transition planning.

 

Where can I get information about support in looking for job training/employment?

MRS and the School to Work team can provide valuable information, tools, and services for students who are eligible to work and want to find employment. 

 

How often is the transition plan reviewed?

Each student's transition plan is reviewed at least annually during the IEP meeting to identify career and post-secondary goals once the student exits high school.
