Your first IEP — start to finish.

Step 1

Open the Goal Bank and add a student

Visit the Goal Bank — you'll see an empty "Your students" page the first time.

Click + New student. A dialog asks for the student's name and grade. Only the name is required — the grade is optional. Click Create & open.

The student's name is used to auto-fill goal sentences ("Jamie will read…") and to label the IEP in the basket. It is saved in your browser only — never sent anywhere.

Step 2

Pick a subject and browse the goals

The top of the page shows four subject pills: Reading, Writing, Math, Behavior. Click one to see the goals in that area. Each pill shows how many goals are inside.

Every goal card shows the finished sentence with a few phrases shown in coral-pink pills. Those pills are the editable parts — the phrases that change from student to student.

Step 3

Customize the highlighted phrases

Click any highlighted phrase (a "chip") to open its dropdown. Pick a different option, or type your own at the bottom of the list and press Enter. The sentence updates as you change things.

Step 4

Add the goal to the IEP panel

When the goal reads the way you want, click + Add to IEP. The goal appears in the dark-green IEP for [Student] panel on the right. Repeat for the other goals you need — jump between subjects as you go.

To change a goal you've already added, click it in the IEP panel — the page scrolls to it and highlights the card with a coral ring so you can keep editing.

Step 5

Copy the finished IEP

When all the goals are in the panel, click Copy all goals as text. A numbered list of the goals — with the student's name and grade at the top — is placed on your clipboard.

Open your district's IEP software and paste. The output is plain text, so it works in Frontline, SEAS, PowerSchool, Google Docs, Word, or anything else that accepts text.
