[QUOTE="slsh, post: 6059, member: 8"] Sharon, the IEP team is still are required to address a re-evaluation every 3 years. The team can decide that testing is/isn't necessary in the different domains, but it has to be specifically addressed. I think with- kiddos where there is no question about their continued qualification for sped, the re-evaluation is more about defining where they're at. Boo is a good example - no question he qualifies. The reevals have touched on all areas (motor, cognitive, academic, psychiatric) so that there's a more concrete measure of progress and/or level of function. Much more definitive than his IEP LOP (though that could be my fault for letting them slide on IEP stuff). Since you are questioning the issue of Learning Disability (LD)'s, sounds like the IEP team does need to address formally the re-evaluation (which they should've done anyway). I don't think they can just say "we know he qualifies, therefore we don't need to do testing", since you're on the team and *especially* since the possibility of LDs has been raised. My lay understanding anyway. [/QUOTE]
