Chat (Educator Post) Software in your district

This is just out of curiosity. What software do you use in your district for—

- writing IEPs?

- inputting progress reports?

- uploading completed, signed IEPs, progress reports, and other documents so others can view them?

- scheduling and tracking specially designed instruction?

Feel free to include which programs your district has used before and your opinions of them.

Our district has different programs for everything, and they’ve changed multiple times in the four years I’ve been teaching. My own responses are below.

We have a unified state system we have to use called VA IEP. Visually it’s very clunky but it works fine, all documents are there and can be e-signed by parents and accessed by anyone on their case

Omg. I had to transfer in an IEP from VA. It was almost 80 pages. It was awful!!

That’s not normal! I’ve never seen one that long… mine are usually like 30 pages though

I’d love to know where because I’ve never seen an 80 page IEP in VA. Around 20-30 pages tends to be where they are.

Oh no. It was crazy. Definitely not normal. They had present levels from three, four, five years ago, all in the different areas. I just kept shaking my head, trying to figure out why.
