The Standards-Based Individualized Education Program (SB-IEP) is a product of collaboration between a parent(s), student and educators who, through full and equal participation, identify the unique needs of a student with a disability or giftedness and plan the special education and related services to meet those needs. In addition, the SB-IEP is a management tool that is used to ensure that each eligible student is provided special education and related services appropriate to the student’s special learning needs.
