This cartoon has four panels arranged in a square, each showing the same image: a special educator sitting across from a parent with papers on the table between them. In the upper left panel the teacher says, "Mrs. Ramirez, as you know, we are here to plan an IEP for Jose. Now I know we should have checked with you first, but we went ahead and drafted his goals and objectives." In the upper right panel the special educator asks, "Is that OK with you?" The parent, who speaks Spanish as her primary language and has a confused look on her face asks, "Oh, que?" In the lower left panel the special educator say, "Great, I'm glad it's OK with you. Actually, I know shouldn't have, but we went head and made some related service decisions too. Is that OK? The confused parent again replies, "Oh, que?" In the lower right panel the special educator says, "Wonderful Mrs. Ramirez. Don't you wish every IEP meeting was this easy?" Again the confused parent again replies, "Oh, que?" The tag line under the cartoon reads, "Miss Plepper was absent for the Inservice on cultural and linguistic diversity.
