IEPs must be reviewed at least annually.

• A. They are reviewed yearly
• B. They are never reviewed
• C. They are reviewed monthly
• D. They are reviewed only at graduation

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that an IEP must be reviewed at least once every year to make sure the plan stays aligned with the student’s progress and needs. An annual IEP meeting brings the team together to review progress toward annual goals, decide whether goals and services need to be adjusted, and update accommodations or supports as the student changes. This yearly check keeps the plan responsive and focused on current performance.

It isn’t reviewed every month, nor is it reviewed only at graduation or never. Monthly reviews aren’t typically used for formal updates of goals and services, and graduation is a milestone, not a routine point for ongoing planning. In addition, there is usually a separate reevaluation at least every three years to reassess eligibility and the continued need for specialized services, distinct from the annual progress review.
