What do you need to know for students who transfer into KPBSD with an out of district IEP?
The first step is that the team must determine whether to accept the eligibility and the IEP established by the previous district. This decision must be made within 10 days of the student enrolling.
The team may accept both the eligibility and the IEP, even if the IEP requires minor revisions to align with the services provided by KPBSD. The IEP team does not need to conduct an IEP meeting if the current IEP is available, the parent agrees with it, and the IEP team finds it approrpriate. If this is the case, acceptance can be accomplished through an IEP amendment by phone.
The team may reject the eligibility and/or the IEP. However, FAPE must be provided to the student based on the eligibility and IEP developed in the previous district until a new evaluation is conducted and/or a new IEP is developed.
