[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 138986, member: 23"] As you probably know, before the sd can stop the services a re-evaluation is needed. What do you mean by school percentages?? The following is from the Feds: [FONT=Melior](4) Section 300.300(c)(1), regarding[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]parental consent for reevaluations, has[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]been modified to clarify that if a parent[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]refuses to consent to a reevaluation, the[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]public agency may, but is not required[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]to, pursue the reevaluation by using the[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]consent override procedures in[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.300(a)(3), and the public agency[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]does not violate its obligation under[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.111 and §§ 300.301 through[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]300.311 if it declines to pursue the[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]evaluation or reevaluation.[/FONT] [I][FONT=Melior-Italic]Comment: [/FONT][/I][FONT=Melior]Several commenters[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]recommended allowing public agencies[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]to use the due process procedures to[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]override a parent's refusal to consent to[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]a reevaluation.[/FONT] [I][FONT=Melior-Italic]Discussion: [/FONT][/I][FONT=Melior]Override of parental[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]refusal to consent to a reevaluation is[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]already addressed in the regulations.[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]Section 300.300(c) states that each[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]public agency must obtain informed[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]parental consent in accordance with[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.300(a)(1) prior to conducting any[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]reevaluation of a child with a disability.[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]Section 300.300(a)(3) allows a public[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]agency to override parental refusal to[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]consent to an initial evaluation by[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]utilizing the mediation procedures[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]under § 300.506 or the due process[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]procedures under §§ 300.507 through[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]300.516. The cross-reference in[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.300(c)(1)(i) to the provision in[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.300(a)(1) provides the basis for[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]allowing a public agency to override the[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]parent's refusal of consent to a[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]reevaluation. However, we believe it is[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]important to state this more directly and[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]will, therefore, add language to[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.300(c)(1) to clarify that if a parent[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]refuses to consent to a reevaluation, the[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]public agency may, but is not required[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]to, pursue the reevaluation by using the[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]procedural safeguards in subpart E of[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]this part.[/FONT] [I][FONT=Melior-Italic]Changes: [/FONT][/I][FONT=Melior]We have restructured[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.300(c)(1) and added a new[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]§ 300.300(c)(1)(ii) to clarify that a public[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]agency may, but is not required to,[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]pursue a reevaluation using the[/FONT] [FONT=Melior]procedural safeguards.
