Person filing complaint

Parent

Grade Level

Elementary

Allegation(s)

The Parent alleged that she requested an evaluation for special education and related services for her child, but her request was denied by the District. (RCSA §10-76d-7)

Conclusion(s)

Under the IDEA and Connecticut regulations, districts have an affirmative obligation to identify and evaluate students suspected of having a disability and needing special education services. [cite: 99] In this case, the district processed the referral, convened the PPT and determined that, based on data, an initial evaluation was not warranted. Therefore, there is no violation of RCSA §10-76d-7, and no corrective action is required.

Corrective Action(s)

None
