Visual Transition Worksheet

  • Welcome to the MI Path: Transition Worksheet!

    You have a plan called an Individualized Education Program (IEP) created by your support team at school. This team is called an IEP Team. You and your parents or caregivers are part of the IEP Team.

    When you turn 16, the school must ask you to come to your IEP meeting. At the meeting, you talk about what you want to do after high school for a job or for more learning, and where you want to live. It is important you are at this meeting because the plan is about YOU.

Look at the questions below with your parents or caregivers.

Answer the questions as best as you can. You can take this worksheet to your IEP meeting and talk about what you want to do after high school. This worksheet will be presented from your perspective as the student (because this is all about YOU).
