Part 1

Please review the link below to further analyze the Eligibility process when determining if a student is eligible for special education services.   

Eligibility Process

In addition, below is an example of an Eligibility Meeting for a student being considered for Specific Learning Disability (SLD). The Eligibility team discussed the student’s multi-tiered approach and data collection (including a psychological) used as a comprehensive evaluation to determine if the student was eligible for Special Education services. Please review link below.

IEP Team/Process

If a child has been determined eligible for Special Education services, he/she will be provided with an Individual Education Plan Team who will develop his/her Individual Education Plan (IEP). From the date that the parent signs the consent to evaluate the student, the IEP team has 60 calendar days to determine eligibility, develop and implement an IEP. The function of and IEP is to allow him/her to gain access to education in the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) when given appropriate accommodations/modifications according to his/her individual needs. Please review the provided link below to further analyze the IEP team and process.
