According to the Department of Education, reevaluations can be done when:
- Significant new information is needed to properly serve the student.
- Consideration is being given to terminating gifted services.
- There is a sudden general deterioration of the student's work.
- A hearing officer or judicial decision orders a reevaluation.
- A parent requests an evaluation.
Before a student is reevaluated, the school must notify the parents.
Steps
To notify the parents of a reevaluation:- Create a Notice of Intent to Reevaluate.
- Provide contact information.
- Share the document with the parents along with a copy of the Notice of Parental Rights for Gifted Students.
- The parents can then sign off on the reevaluation.
- When the parents fill out the document, a staff member can then fill out the Date of receipt.
- Mark the document complete.
The school must evaluate the child within 60 calendar days. Once the student has been evaluated, the Gifted Multidisciplinary Team must prepare a written report.
Steps
To evaluate a student:- Create a Gifted Written Report.
- Select Reevaluation.
- Once the Gifted Multidisciplinary Team has conducted a Gifted Multidisciplinary Evaluation, summarize findings in Section 1.
- At the bottom of Section 1, make an eligibility determination. In order to be found eligible, the student must be gifted and in need of specially designed instruction.
- In Section 2, provide recommendations.
- In Section 3, provide information about the evaluation team.
- Complete the document.
- Share the document with the parents along with a copy of the Notice of Parental Rights for Gifted Students.
When the document is completed, if the student continues to be eligible for services, they will need their GIEP reviewed.
