A paraprofessional's role in an IEP meeting may include:

• A. Leading the meeting as decision-maker.
• B. Acting as a resource if requested.
• C. Making policy changes.
• D. Evaluating teachers.

Answer: (B)

The point being tested is what a paraprofessional can do as part of the IEP team. A paraprofessional may serve as a resource if asked, providing information, observations, and materials that help the team understand the student’s needs and plan supports. They might bring data on progress, share practical strategies, and help implement accommodations, but they don’t lead the meeting, make policy changes, or evaluate teachers. Those responsibilities belong to certified staff or district leadership. Acting as a resource when requested keeps the team informed and focused on the student, while maintaining clear role boundaries.
