Section 2 - Description of IPP
Once the student’s strengths and challenges have been developed, you must now
focus on the Annual Individual Outcomes (AIOs). The first required field is
the focus of AIO, simply select using the drop down menu provided. You select
from Academic, Life Skills or Social Development. If the AIO is academic in
nature, you must attach Course Code(s) in which subjects/courses the AIOs
will be covered. The “Lookup” link will allow you to access the list of courses for
which the student is enrolled through PowerSchool. You may add up to 6
courses if necessary.
Details for each Specific Individualized Outcome (SIO) must be included to
create the IPP.
Course Code: you can put multiple course codes in the elementary IPP but only
one course code for junior/senior high IPPs. Use the “Lookup” link to locate the
courses.
SIO: this should be measurable and entered in the text box
Educational Strategies: list all the strategies that will be used to assist the
students in achieving the outcome. If a crisis management plan is required,
please put in this section.
Materials/Equipment: list all the materials and equipment that will be used to
assist the students in achieving the outcome.
Persons Responsible: Use the “Insert Statements” to avoid having to use
individual names. The IPP Matrix is a built-in tool provided to help with
determining how the IPP is to be implemented and who will be responsible for
what SIO.

HIGH SCHOOLS – VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For students attending high schools with semester courses, there will need to
be an IPP for each semester to accommodate new classes/subjects. At each
semester, the IPP will only have access to the courses the student is enrolled in
for that semester. The IPP for first semester will have to be set to final at
the end of the semester. The IPP from first semester can then be copied for
second semester. The copied IPP will then have access to courses for second
semester. This process is only done once second semester has begun.
