Parent Notification link

Children can be reevaluated for special education. Before beginning the reevaluation process, you must notify the parents.

Steps
To notify the parents:

  1. Create a Prior Written Notice for Reevaluation.
  2. Provide information about the proposed reevaluation.
  3. Enter in contact information.
  4. Fill out the Date Sent field.
  5. Mark the document complete.
  6. Share the document with the parents.

Review of Existing Data link

Once you have notified the parents, you can begin conducting a review of existing data to determine if more data is needed.

Steps
To conduct a review of existing evaluation data:

  1. Create a Review of Existing Evaluation Data Report.
  2. Summarize all information reviewed.
  3. Make a determination about whether additional data is needed.
  4. If additional data is not needed, make a determination about the child's eligibility.
  5. Mark the document complete.

If it is determined that additional data is not needed and the child continues to be eligible, the team may begin with a plan review. If additional data is needed, another evaluation will need to be completed.
