Section CI-303 - School Building Level Committee

A. The School Building Level Committee (SBLC) is a general education, data driven, decision-making committee whose standing members consist of at least the principal/designee, a classroom teacher, and the referring teacher. In discussing an individual student's difficulties, the student's parent or guardian is an invited participant. The SBLC shall review and analyze all screening data, including RTI results, to determine the most beneficial option for the student. The committee's options include, but are not limited to one of the following actions.

1. Conduct no further action at this time.

2. Continue current intervention and progress monitoring through the RTI process.

3. Conduct additional interventions through the RTI process.

4. Refer the student to the appropriate committee to conduct a Section 504 evaluation.

5. Refer the student to pupil appraisal personnel for support services.

6. Refer the student to pupil appraisal personnel for an individual evaluation if an exceptionality is suspected.

B. Parents must be provided a report or summary by the SBLC on the status of the student's response to scientifically research-based interventions which would include repeated assessments of achievement at reasonable intervals, reflecting formal assessment of student progress during instruction. This report or summary must be provided to parents at least once each grading period until a decision is reached. If the parents disagree with the SBLC actions or decision, the parents must be provided a copy of their rights, which includes the right to request an evaluation. If it is the opinion of the SBLC that the student be referred for an initial evaluation, a pupil appraisal team member shall be present to review supporting documentation.
