It’s great that you’re preparing for high school! Having an IEP (Individualized Education Program) can sometimes mean that your schedule might be a bit different, especially if you receive specific services or accommodations. Your school will typically work with you, your parents, and your teachers to create a schedule that meets your needs.
You might have classes in a resource room, spend time with a special education teacher, or have access to additional support during certain subjects. It’s a good idea to reach out to your school’s special education coordinator or counselor—they can help you understand what your schedule might look like and ensure you have the support you need. Don’t hesitate to ask questions and advocate for yourself; you’re not alone in this!
