Section LVII-707 - Selection of Goal(s) and Objective(s) for Students Eligible by Regression-Recoupment Criterion

A. The ESY-IEP team must remember that the intent of regression-recoupment criterion is to provide instruction to students who regress to a lower level of educational functioning because of the interruption in the educational program and for whom the reacquisition of these lost skills is slow. In identifying objectives for ESYP instruction for students who meet the criterion, the ESY-IEP team must keep in mind that the focus of this criterion is on the maintenance and/or reacquisition of skills.

B. The ESY-IEP team should follow this sequence to select objectives for ESY instruction.

1. Look at the targeted/circled objectives. If the student has not mastered or maintained these objectives, the ESY-IEP team must determine whether instruction on these objectives should be continued during ESYP.

2. Look at other objectives on the regular school year IEP that the student has not mastered and which require instruction for the student to continue his or her educational program without the loss of essential skills. The ESY-IEP team should carefully review the student's pattern of regression-recoupment problems and determine which of these objectives should be addressed during the ESYP. For example, did the student regress in a particular curricular area (e.g., communication, self-help, motor)? The team may decide to identify other essential objectives in that area.

3. If the student has mastered all objectives on his or her regular school year IEP since the screening date, and if the ESY-IEP team feels that ESYP instruction is necessary because of a pattern of regression-recoupment problems, an objective(s) that focuses on maintenance of essential skills during the ESYP must be written.
