This comprehensive guide breaks down the differences between accommodations, modifications, and interventions in K–12 education, helping parents understand how each support helps students succeed in different ways. You’ll learn how accommodations change how a student learns (like extended time), modifications change what a student is expected to learn (like simplified assignments), and interventions provide extra instruction to help close learning gaps. The resource includes clear definitions, side-by-side comparisons, real-world examples, and guidance on where each support fits within general education, 504 plans, or IEPs. This Kansas-focused guide emphasizes that understanding these differences is key to making sure students get the right support at the right time. Perfect for parents preparing for school meetings and wanting to confidently discuss what their child needs and why.

Brett is one of the most thoughtful practitioners I have worked with in my career. He is extremely thorough in his psychological evaluations. In therapy, he is as empathetic as he is competent in working with people who are facing great challenges.
