Robin:

I would suggest, if you have not already, that you look at the US Department of Education's website at the section of IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004) http://idea.ed.gov/explore/home 

There is information on IEP's (Individualized Education Plans) which may have some of what you are looking for.

Good luck

Subject: [RM] Question for school RMs--Exceptional Student Education Records

Hello,
 
The school district where I work is revising its student records policies.  While I was left out of the initial development phase, I have been asked to review and comment on the draft.
 
I have been working on finding legal cites that either support or conflict with items in the policy.
 
One item in the policy is a requirement that individual exceptional student education records be kept separate from other cumulative education records.  I have been unable to find this issue addressed in federal law.  
 
At the same time, I seem to remember a requirement that it be indicated in the student cumulative record when a part of the record was maintained in a separate location. I can't find that either.
 
I have been reading through legalese all week and am starting to go cross-eyed!  Can anyone give me a lead?

This probably won't be of interest to the whole list.  You can respond to me at:
