Progress Reports

The Progress Report is used to document a student's progress toward their annual goals and objectives as stated in their IEP. Although it is not a required form, it can be a very useful tool.

Tracking progress link

Steps to track progress in a Progress Report:

1. After completing an IEP for a student, create an IEP Progress Report.
   • If you create the Progress Report after completing the IEP, the student's goals, objectives, and meeting dates will populate the document automatically.
   • If you create the Progress Report before completing the IEP, information will not populate automatically and you will need to update the information.
2. To track progress narratively, under each goal, click add Progress.
3. Fill out the progress section and describe the student's progress using comments.
4. You can also choose to use a progress monitoring chart to graph quantitative data.
5. You may leave the document open for the duration of the plan, adding progress information as needed. Then at the end of the plan duration, mark the Progress Report complete.

You may also document objective progress in a similar manner.

Updating goals and IEP dates link

If you created an IEP Progress Report before completing the most recent IEP, or if you changed the goals/objectives in the most recent IEP, you'll need to update the goals in the Progress Report.

Steps to update the goals/objectives in the Progress Report:

1. Update goals in the IEP as needed and mark the document complete.
2. Click the X icon for any goals/objectives section that is outdated to remove the section in the Progress Report.
3. Click Update Goals/IEP Dates to automatically update the information in the progress report.

You may also click add Present Level then add Goal to manually enter in goals.
