What Does The School Do To Document Reasonable Measures Were Taken to Obtain Consent, If Parents Do Not Respond To The Request To Reevaluate?


According to South Carolina's Office of Exceptional Children Policies and Procedures released April 6, 2009, if the parent does not respond the school must keep detailed records of its attempts to obtain parental consent including written correspondence sent to the parents, phone calls made or attempted and visits made to the parent's home or place of employment, and the response, if any, from the parent. Repeated measures might include two attempts, using at least two different methods. If the school is not successful after repeated reasonable measures, then the school may continue with the reevaluation procedures. (34 C.F.R. Section 300.303(d)(5); 34 C.F.R. Section 300(d)).
