Which of the following is a typical component of an IEP meeting agenda?

• A. Budget approvals and transportation routes
• B. Present levels, annual goals, services and placement, participation in general ed, accommodations, transition planning, timelines, parental input
• C. School cafeteria menu review
• D. Building safety procedures

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is what is typically included when planning and reviewing an individualized education program. An IEP meeting agenda normally covers the student’s present levels of performance, the measurable annual goals that will guide progress, the special education services and placement that will support those goals, and how the student will participate with peers in general education. It also includes what accommodations or modifications will help the student access the curriculum, transition planning for older students, timelines for implementing services, and a space for parental input. This combination directly reflects what the student needs, how those needs will be addressed, and how progress and involvement will be monitored, which is why it is the best fit.

Other options don’t align with the purpose of an IEP meeting. Budget approvals and transportation routes relate more to district operations than to the student’s individualized plan. A cafeteria menu review or building safety procedures fall outside the core planning and decision-making about the student’s education, supports, and progress.
