Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)
Special Education and Related Services for Eligible Students
The purpose of the district’s special education program procedures is to address program areas where state and federal regulations require specific local procedures or permit local discretionary choices.
The state regulations governing implementation of special education services pursuant to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA) of 2004 are addressed in Chapter 392-172A WAC. These procedures do not address all of the requirements established in the regulations. District personnel who are not familiar with the regulations need to contact the special services department director if there are questions regarding special education. These procedures describe how the district implements its special education program.
