Specific Learning Disabilities Notification for Schools as Required by PI 11.36(6)(c)2
The rule requires KUSD to notify all parents of students enrolled in a school at least ten calendar days before that school begins using progress monitoring data from a student’s response to intensive, scientific, research based or evidence based intervention to determine insufficient progress for initial specific learning disability (SLD) evaluations. This provision ensures the information will reach all parents of students enrolled in the school.
Once KUSD begins using this method for determining insufficient progress for any student enrolled in the school being evaluated for SLD, KUSD must use this method for all SLD evaluations of students enrolled in that school. All schools must use progress monitoring data from intensive interventions to determine insufficient progress for all SLD evaluations of public school students beginning December 1, 2013.
