IEP IMPLEMENTATION

IEP MEETING

COMPENSATORY SERVICES

Issue

(1) District did not hold an IEP Team meeting to develop an IEP when student moved

(2) District had not implemented the student’s IEP since enrollment in Kingston

(3) District did not consider student’s level of need and therefore did not prioritize student for in-person learning

Finding

Compliance:

(1) District held an IEP meeting, though date may have been incorrectly noted;

(3) Student has a moderate level of need according to PL3 form and therefore district complied with DESE guidance for prioritizing in -person learning   (note: unclear if the student was unable to engage in remote learning due to their disability)

Noncompliance:

(1) District based progress report on goals from proposed IEP instead of student’s stay put IEP

(2) District was unable to provide required counseling and inclusion support for ’20-’21 school year

Corrective Action

District must review requirements for reviewing IEPs and implementing stay-put IEP goals until new IEP is accepted by parent

District, with parent, must develop a compensatory services plan for related services owed to student by 2/12/20.  If no plan can be agreed to, DESE will create plan.

*Deadline given by DESE appears to be a typo as it wouldn’t be possible to submit before 2/20.
