How Do I Request an IEP Progress Report?
Quick Answer
To request an IEP progress report, send a written letter to the case manager asking for a detailed update on each annual goal — including the data being used, whether your child is on track, and any goals that may need revision. Under IDEA, parents are entitled to regular progress reports.
