• Out of State

    -If an out of state transfer student was never eligible in PA, we issue a NOREP for the interim provision of comparable services and simultaneously issue a permission to evaluate (this must happen).

     

    In State

    -In state student transfers do not require a reevaluation; however, we should be looking at the information that the student comes to us with to determine if a reevaluation is warranted.

    -If you adopt an in state IEP, you must send out a NOREP immediately. Indicate in the NOREP what IEP you are adopting and state the action you are taking. An IEP meeting should be held to review the IEP even if you are not making changes. You then have 30 days to transfer that IEP into our system (IEP Writer).

    • The annual due date will be one year from the date on the in-state IEP, and NOT the date we adopt that IEP.

    -If you have a student with an in state IEP that is expired you are going to adopt the expired IEP and develop a brand new one within 30 days, preferably sooner. Implementation date of the new IEP will be the day after it’s developed (meeting day), assuming you have a signed NOREP. 

    -If you make changes to the IEP for the in-state transfer student, you do not necessarily need to do a re-evaluation unless you are changing the placement. If you are decreasing any services (academic support, related services, etc.), then I would suggest a re-evaluation.
