A dated record is often the strongest evidence a family brings to a case.
A timeline that works
Make a table with one row per month and columns for each service: what the IEP required, what was delivered, and the gap. Use the school's logs where you have them and your own notes where you don't.
What counts as evidence
- Emails or letters saying a provider wasn't available
- Gaps in session logs
- Your own notes written at the time, with dates
- Messages from teachers or providers
Write it down now
Memories fade, and these claims have time limits. Start the timeline today, even if it's rough.
