SEIS – IEP Changes & Compliance

Prior Written Notice - Initial Only This form is to be filled out when presenting an evaluation plan for initial evaluations only.

Prior Written Notice - Sample

Assessment Plan This form will be used when proposing an evaluation. Referred by – Needs to be signed by one of the four options of: Parent, Nurse, Teacher, or Sped Teacher (SLP can sign in place of SpEd Teacher). Check boxes in areas of suspected disability. Put the title of the staff responsible, there’s no need to list the name of the person performing the assessment.

Assessment Plan – Sample #1

Assessment Plan – Sample #2

Notice of Meeting This form will be used to notify parents/guardians of the IEP meeting. Make sure to indicate a start and end time to the meetings. Try to come up with a mutually agreeable time and date prior to sending out the NOM. There are now check boxes and additional boxes with blank titles. There’s no need to put the names of staff attending the meeting, write in the title. The case manager indicated is the person to whom it should be returned. The case manager will always be the person to be contacted with Procedural Safeguards questions.

Notice of Meeting – Sample #1

Notice of Meeting – Sample #2

IEP Team Member Excusal This form will be used to excuse IEP team members in full or with partial participation in an IEP. This form must be sent with the NOM prior to the IEP meeting. You must receive a parent/guardian signature in order to proceed with the meeting. If it is not agreed upon then another meeting needs to be calendared. Signature of Designated District Representative: Must be signed by the person administrating the meeting.

Excusal – Sample

Individualized Education Program – Information Page Complete information related to the student including the Purpose of the Meeting and disability area/s. Eligibility Statement When completing the eligibility statement indicate how the student’s disability impacts their performance in the general education setting. This is not the area to indicate services, including placement or location of the services taking place. For Initial Placements Only: Always check the NO box for the students receiving IDEA Coordinated Early Intervention Services.

Info Page Sample #1

Info Page Sample #2

Present Levels of Academic Achievement & Functional Performance Strengths/Preferences, Interests Concerns of parents relevant to educational progress Include all parent concerns before or during a meeting. CST, CMA, CAPA, CELDT, PE, results from previous years Other Assessment Data: Include any additional classroom measures such as Dibels, Language progress indicators, etc… Hearing and Vision screening boxes must be checked

Present Levels – Sample #1

Present Levels of Academic Achievement & Functional Performance Preacademic/Academic/Functional Skills, Communication Development, Gross/Fine Motor Development, Social Emotional/Behavioral, Vocational, Adaptive Living Skills, Health: Each field needs to be completed. If the field is not an area being addressed you can put a statement such as: “Student is performing at an age/grade appropriate manner therefore this is not an area of concern.” Also, indicate what the student can do compared to peers of age or grade and that is why it is not an area of concern. Simply writing statements such as, “please see attached report” does not provide adequate information. You may include an additional statement that says “see attached report for additional information” after providing a short annotation. Health: There is not a Health Plan box to be checked as before. All relevant information for health should be annotated in the box as well as including a Health Plan attached to the IEP if necessary.

Present Levels – Sample #2

Special Factors Review with the IEP team any AT considerations. Describe generic AT devices instead of identifying the items by name/brand. Review low incidence services, equipment and/or materials. Describe what is needed. Review Blind/Visually Impaired. Describe what is needed. Review Deaf or Hard of Hearing. Describe what is needed. English Learner: Need to complete all of the check boxes if they are marked as an EL student. If yes, you will need to put who and how the services are being delivered. EL information here also needs to match with the info page of the IEP. There is a comment box to address any other needs. Behavior: We no longer need to mark the box “Behavior Support Plan”. Physically cross it out on the IEP, until SEIS updates the form. Need to complete the checked boxes as appropriate. If you check yes a description of the behavior and the positive behavior interventions/strategies are required. Writing “See BIP” does not provide adequate information. Input the specific goal areas to be addressed in the IEP.

Special Factors – Sample

Statewide Assessment Until we move to Smarter Balanced assessments fully, accommodations and modifications will still have to be entered on this page. Accommodations and Modifications are a blank box to write into. Use the CST/CAPA Matrix for specific verbiage when listing accommodations and/or modifications. Please make sure to keep the SEIS information up to date with assessments. SEIS data is collected (prior to winter break) so that we know how many CST/CMA/CAPA books to order. Additionally, to make sure we are covered for any additional assessments which could include Smarter Balanced Assessment, copy and paste what you have for CST/CMA accommodations and/or modifications into the “Other State-Wide/District-Wide Assessment Alternate Assessment” section.

Statewide Assessments continued… CAPA criteria If the student is not taking the CST or CMA and is taking CAPA you must check the box that indicates the IEP team has reviewed the criteria. Additionally, you must now provide a statement as to why they will not participate in CST or CMA and why “CAPA is the most appropriate assessment because...”

Statewide Assessments continued… You must include the results and/or accommodations / modifications if applicable for: Physical Fitness Test CAHSEE DRDP CELDT Alternate Assessment to CELDT Standards based Test in Spanish

Individual Transition Plan ITPs must be completed on or before the student’s 16 birthday. Check yes that the student was invited. Check all boxes that apply indicating how the student participated in the process. Check yes that age appropriate assessments were used. Each ITP goal must be linked to an annual goal. You must attach the full official transcript. Fill in Course of Study information, CAHSEE results, Age of Majority information. Make sure all boxes are checked yes on page 2 at the bottom of the ITP.

Annual Goals & Objectives Creating SMART goals: Specific Measurable Action-Oriented Realistic & Relevant Time-Bound Baselines must include specific data relevant to the annual goal addressing the need. All special education students must have objectives for their annual goals. Include the standard addressed, check any other boxes that are appropriate, and indicate the person responsible.

Offer of FAPE – Services Make sure to consider and annotate all of the LRE service options that were considered by the IEP. Supplementary Aids, Services, & Other Supports require: Who the service is being provided to (student vs. personnel) Start date End date Frequency Duration Location: where the aids, services, or other supports will take place Additionally consultation services can only be written here. Transportation is a box to include an annotation of what the student requires. Transportation offers need to be discussed and described.

Offer of FAPE – Services continued… Special Education and Related Services and ESY are to be used when offering a direct service to the student (including collaboration). Collaboration must be indicated by the service provider and can be described in the comments box for additional information. Consultation between staff members is input into the Supplementary Aids and Services section. Remember to mark the duplicate services as “Do Not Report” if applicable. ESY – Use the Regression and Recoupment worksheet for ESY service determination in the document library. There’s no need to write in the comments box a statement about services being provided during the school calendar year. The statement is included at the bottom of the ESY section. “Programs and services will be provided according to when student is in attendance and consistent with the district of service calendar and scheduled services, excluding holidays, vacations, and non-instructional days unless otherwise specified.”

Educational Setting – Sample

Signature & Parent Consent If there are multiple meetings use the same signature page for each meeting, re-date and initial for each part. Help parents understand that they can sign for all or part of the services. Advocates can note areas of concern on a dissent that can be attached.
