La. Admin. Code tit. 28 § LVII-511

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 11, November 20, 2024

Section LVII-511 - Parental Notification and ESY-IEP

A. The teacher should send the parents written notification of the screening results within 5 business days of the ESYP screening date. For students whose data do not support eligibility, photocopies of the department mandated forms related to the eligibility criterion used for screening should be enclosed in the notification letter.

B. For students whose data support eligibility for the ESYP, an ESY IEP is scheduled (not necessarily held) within 15 business days after the ESYP screening date. Every effort must be made to obtain parental participation. The same procedures are followed as for a review IEP (Bulletin 1706, §442 and §443). If parental participation cannot be obtained, the ESY IEP is developed and the parent(s)/guardian are notified and sent copies of documents.

C. For students whose screened data do not support eligibility for ESYP, and the parent(s) disagrees with the preliminary eligibility determination, a meeting of the IEP team should be held to review the data regarding ESYP eligibility. If the data indicate the student is eligible or there is insufficient data to make a determination, the ESY-IEP should be developed. If the data supports the initial screening assessment and preliminary determination (i.e., ineligible), the parent has the right to appeal the decision.
