Full Document

Honoring the mandates of Public Law 94-142 for providing a free appropriate public education (FAPE) to all children with disabilities in a least restrictive environment, the mission of the CBI and IRR Departments is to provide (a) an account of the student’s present educational performance levels, (b) a statement of annual goals, including short-term instructional objectives, (c) a statement of the specific educational services that are to be provided to the student, (d) an account of the extent to which the student will be able to participate in regular educational programs, (e) the projected date for the beginning of services and expected length of services, and (f) appropriate evaluation procedures and schedules for determining, on at least an annual basis, whether instructional objectives are being achieved in order for students with special needs to prepare them for post-secondary opportunities. Compliance with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) will be evident in all services, programs, and activities.
