IEP Review

______________ refers to educating a student with peers in general education (not study skills) whenever possible.

• Individualized Education Plan (IEP)

• Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)

• Free and appropriate public education (FAPE)

• Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA)

After parents/guardians give their consent for the student's referral, what is the next step in the IEP process?

• The IEP team meets to discuss what services the student needs.

• The student is given an evaluation of assessments and/or surveys to determine what academic area (math, reading, writing, etc.) on which they need to work.

• The school immediately implements (starts teaching) what the IEP says/outlines.

• The school conducts an annual review one year later to see if the student makes any changes in their grades.

The 7 steps (in order) of the IEP process are as follows:

• Conference with parents/guardians, referral, assessment, IEP meeting, re-evaluation, IEP implementation, and determining eligibility.

• Referral, evaluation, recess, determining eligibility, IEP implementation, annual review, and re-evaluation.

• Evaluation, IEP meeting, scheduling, annual review, 2nd IEP meeting, assessment, and IEP implementation.

• Referral, evaluation, determining eligibility, IEP development, IEP implementation, annual review, and re-evaluation.

What is one major difference between an annual review and a re-evaluation.

• An annual review is conducted at least once every year, and a re-evaluation takes place every 3 years.

• An annual review is about a 3 hour meeting, while the re-evaluation is only 30 minutes.

• Parents/guardians have to attend the annual review, but not the re-evaluation.
