Free Training for Parents of High School Students with Disabilities in Franklin

The City of Franklin, Louisiana, is offering a free training session for parents and caregivers of high school students with disabilities. This training focuses on the April Dunn Act, which may allow eligible students with an Individualized Education Program (IEP) to earn a regular high school diploma by demonstrating their knowledge in ways beyond traditional state test scores. Participants will learn about eligibility requirements, the process involved, and how to effectively advocate for their child’s educational needs. Families who may benefit from this training are encouraged to attend.
