According to South Carolina's Office of Exceptional Children Policies and Procedures released April 6, 2009, the answer is "no". The LEA is not required to send the child his or her own separate notice; however, children ages 13-17 must be invited with documentation of their participation in the IEP meeting or input into the IEP. After the age of majority (18 in South Carolina), the LEA MUST provide any Notice to BOTH the adult student and the parents. The parents are only notified of the meeting. To attend the meeting, they must be invited by their child or the LEA.
