Description

Why are so many educators leaving the classroom — not to quit, but to advocate? In this webinar replay, Karen Mayer Cunningham hosts a candid, emotional, and eye-opening panel of former teachers, diagnosticians, and school leaders who now work as special education advocates. They share what finally made them say: “This isn’t what we were taught.” “This isn’t what the law says.” “And this isn’t working for kids.” You’ll learn: What educators discover after proper IEP training Why silence at the IEP table is taught — and enforced How advocacy actually supports teachers (not attacks them) What parents should know before walking into their next meeting How one conversation can change a child’s entire educational path 👇 Resources mentioned in this video: Join The Academy: https://academy.specialeducationacademy.com/theepiciep-courses/the-academy/ Explore trainings, webinars & support Watch more Special Education Boss® episodes.
