Topic of the month: The IEP PLOP
The Individualized Education Plan (IEP) is a document that outlines the services a student with disabilities is to receive in the public schools. Under Federal Law, The Individuals with Disability in Education Act (IDEA), the IEP must contain a section identifying a student's present level of performance (PLOP). The PLOP identifies both strengths and weaknesses. The PLOP provides base data from which goals for improvement can be written. For example, a PLOP should not say "John is behind in math." It needs to provide indication of where he is actually currently achiieving. "Though John is current;y a 5th Grader math fluency remains at a 2nd Grade level."
