More details and background
IEP stands for Individualized Education Program.
An IEP is a written plan developed in accordance with the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA) to address the educational and other needs of a child with a disability while attending school. The IEP outlines the specialized instruction and related services the student is entitled to receive to insure that she/he/they receive a free and appropriate public education (FAPE).

From the District website:
If you are concerned that your child may have a physical, mental, learning or behavioral disability, you may request free screening and evaluation at any time, whether or not your child is enrolled in the Montclair Public Schools.
