Once A Child Has Been Dismissed From Special Education Services, Must The LEA Complete An Initial Evaluation Upon Another Referral For An Evaluation?

According to South Carolina's Office of Exceptional Children Policies and Procedures
released April 6, 2009, once a child has been dismissed, any subsequent evaluation would be an initial evaluation. The evaluation must include a review of existing data. If the team determines the current available data are adequate for the purposes of eligiblity determination, there do not need to be any further assessments conducted.
