[QUOTE="klmno, post: 346298, member: 3699"] We haven't gotten a written survey, but have been asked the questions. I think it's a lwa if the kid is on an IEP and reaches 14 or 15yo. Anyway, we looked at it like "life goals", not necessarily expectations or my dreams. difficult child told them he planned to go to college and I said I would like for him to. It's not impossible, but not neccsaarily a probablity. Still, they wouldn't help him work toward this goal if it wasn't listed. Then, we told both told them that he would like to get an advanced diploma instead of the standard diploma. This is even less likely than college, but if it keeps them supporting him academically and motivates difficult child, I've got no problem with it. They actually marked both "standard" and advanced" on his iep so it would be clearer that it's a goal, but not an expectation and no one (me or at sd) should pressure him about it. So I would suggest letting your daughter decide what she wants to do after high school and go with that, maybe listing a little higher goals for her just to make sure the sd doesn't label her as a teen who doesn't care or need encouragement.
