How ABA works alongside a Cheyenne Mountain School District No. 12 IEP

Think of the IEP as the school-day plan and ABA as the rest-of-the-day plan. Sunbird's sessions happen at home and at daycare, not in Cheyenne Mountain School District No. 12 classrooms — but the goals can and should line up.

  1. Ask for an evaluation in writing. If you think your child needs special-education support, put the request to your school (or the district's special-education office) in writing and keep a copy.
  2. Share what you have. Outside evaluations and an autism diagnosis help, though the school still runs its own eligibility evaluation.
  3. Bring the IEP to your BCBA. With your consent, your Sunbird BCBA reads the IEP goals so home goals reinforce them — the same words, the same expectations.
  4. Review together. IEPs are reviewed at least yearly. Bring progress notes from home; they help the team see the whole child.

Cheyenne Mountain School District No. 12: questions parents ask

Does Sunbird provide ABA inside Cheyenne Mountain School District No. 12 schools?
No — our sessions happen at home and at daycare. With your consent, your BCBA can align home goals with your child's IEP so the two plans support each other.

Put a request for a special-education evaluation in writing to your child's school or the district's special-education office. Children can be evaluated from age 3.
