If you accept out of district paperwork for a transfer student, there are certain components that will need to be entered in the sped database. You do not need to type the entire contents of the IEP and ESER into the database!
Here is what is required:
Type of IEP Review (IEP Info screen)
Certification/Eligibility Category (Evaluation Summary/Eligibility Report screen)
ESER Needs and Recommendations
IEP and ESER Meeting Dates – double check to be sure that expiration dates are correct too!
Summary of Services
Goals and Objectives – enter them in the database so you have a place to enter progress
Assessment Accommodations – these transfer to PowerSchool and are accessed by school counselors/testing coordinators
LRE Placement Checklist
Secondary Transition Checklist (for students age 15+)
All IEP Text Fields – Enter the statement, “see out of district IEP.”
Error check the IEP and ESER and enter “see out of district paperwork” in any other required text fields
