🎒 Free school & parent advocacy tools

Keep the school record clear enough to act on.

Use dated trackers for meetings, services, accommodations, attendance, school responses and follow-up. The goal is not to replace educators or legal advice — it is to make your own chronology and questions easier to see.

01

Record dates and commitments

Write down what was requested, what the school said would happen and when the next step is due. A dated chronology is easier to review than scattered email memory.

02

Track delivery, not just the plan

For services or accommodations, distinguish what the document says from what you can actually confirm happened.

03

Verify the rule that applies

Federal baselines can interact with state rules, district procedures and the student’s specific plan. Check the official source before relying on a deadline or right.

Choose the question you need to answer.

These tools organize parent-held records and planning notes. They are not legal advice, do not determine IDEA/Section 504 eligibility, and cannot replace official school records, state rules or advice from a qualified advocate or attorney.
