Complete the bottom portion of the form, Postsecondary and Transition Planning, based on your ideas regarding this planning. Some of the necessary information may not have been provided in the

For each student, identify strategies you will use to facilitate their postsecondary transition based on information sharing during the individual planning meeting. For example, you may address interventions for career, academic, or social/emotional development, as well as interventions for college/noncollege, as applicable.
