Must An LEA Conduct A Re-evaluation To Determine Post-School Program Eligibility?

According to South Carolina's Office of Exceptional Children Policies and Procedures released April 6, 2009, when a student with a disability is graduating and exiting from special education services LEAs are not required to conduct a reevaluation for a child to meet the entrance or eligibility requirements of a post-school institution or agency. Doing so would impose a significant cost on the LEA that is not required by the law (Federal Register, August 14, 2006, p. 46644). However, LEAs are required to provide a Summary of Performance.
