[QUOTE="Steph80000, post: 54941, member: 89"] I sent my letter certified mail. The middle school Special Education. administrator contacted me this morning and told me that the timeline is 60 school days. The only info I could find regarding IDEA 2004 and timelines stated this: [i]2. Adds 60-day timeline to complete initial evaluation (unless state established timeline). There is a default 60-day timeframe from receipt of parental consent for the initial evaluation until the initial evaluation is conducted, unless the state establishes its own timeframe within which the evaluation must be conducted. The relevant timeframe shall not apply to a local educational agency (LEA) if: The child enrolls in a school served by the LEA after the relevant timeframe has begun and prior to a determination by the child's previous LEA as to whether the child is a child with a disability (as defined in Section 602), but only if the subsequent LEA is making sufficient progress to ensure a prompt completion of the evaluation, and the parent and subsequent LEA agree to a specific time when the evaluation will be completed; or[/i] We live in Kentucky so I don't know if that makes a difference or not [img]:wink:[/img]. If the school administrator is wrong then I definitely want to correct her. But I'm not sure what part of IDEA to cite. Sixty school days is a long time for us to have to wait to get him tested. I'm getting indigestion, already. Stephanie C. [/QUOTE]
