Tool Search: Special Ed Documents
The Elementary Individual Education Plan captures student special education plan information and matches the required documentation provided by the state of Missouri. This document describes each editor, a description of each field on the editor, and any special considerations and instructions. The Individual Service Plan (ISP) is the same format as the IEP used for Private Schools in Missouri. For information on general functionality, navigation, and additional plan and evaluation features, see the core Plan and Evaluation Information article.
The current format of this document is the MO IEP 2024 and MO ISP 2024. Plan formats are managed using the Special Education Plan Type Setup tool.
