IEP Progress Reports contain evaluations about whether a student is meeting goals and objectives that were documented by the Student Team in the Standards and Goals tab of the IEP.
In the report, service providers or team members select objectives that are relevant to their subject areas and write their evaluations about the student's progress. Service providers or team members can view all evaluations but only can edit their own statements.
