Due Process Manual: Chapter 8
Secondary Transition
Students with disabilities begin to develop a formal plan of transitioning from their high school life to adult life through their Individual Education Plan (IEP). The IEP identifies needs, activities, and goals for a successful transition. Students participate in this process with the assistance of their families, teachers and other school staff, personnel from County Social, and Rehabilitation Services and professionals from a variety of agencies and organizations, as needed. This process begins during grade 9.
