ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



transition from ECI services to special education services
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij




Response to Intervention (RTI) Stage 1 - ANS ✔✔ - Initial referral: ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



Guardian talks to child's teacher or the school principal about concerns. If this step is
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



unsuccessful, ask the child's teacher, principal, or counselor about making a referral to the
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



campus-based student support team.
ij ij ij ij




Response to Intervention (RTI) Stage 2 - ANS ✔✔ - Individual evaluation & Determining ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



Eligibility:
ij



child is considered for all support services: tutoring, remedial services, compensatory
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



services, scientific research-based intervention, and other academic or behavior support
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



services
ij




Response to Intervention (RTI) Stage 3 - ANS ✔✔ - IEP & Annual review/reevaluation: ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



Referral for Special Education Services - a referral for an FIE for special education services
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



may be initiated by you, school personnel, or by another person involved in the education
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



or care of your child. If the school determines that an evaluation is not needed or initiates
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



an evaluation, the school must give you prior written notice of its decision not to evaluate
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



your child.
ij ij




Response to Intervention (RTI) - ANS ✔✔ - The federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



(NCLB) and the IDEA direct schools to focus more on helping all children learn by
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



addressing problems early on. Both laws stress the importance of providing high quality,
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



scientifically-based instruction and interventions, and holding schools accountable for the
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



progress of all students in terms of meeting grade level standards.
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij




The goal of the process is to identify children who are at-risk for not meeting grade-level
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



standards and to intervene early.
ij ij ij ij ij




In Texas, an ARD committee makes decisions about eligibility. You are a member of the
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



committee. Within 30 calendar days (except during summer vacation) of completing the
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



FIE, the ARD committee must meet to review the written report and determine whether
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



your child is eligible for special education services.

multiple technologies should be accessible and purposefully used during core instructions
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



interventions and technology should be used in a more individualized and persistent
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



manner.
ij




Consent for Reevaluation - ANS ✔✔ - - If you fail to respond despite reasonable efforts, the
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



school may conduct a reevaluation without your consent.

- If you refuse consent to reevaluate your child, the school district may, but is not required
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



to, ask for mediation or request a due process hearing to override your lack of consent for
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



reevaluation. The school district does not violate its Child Find obligation or its obligation to
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



evaluate your child if the district does not ask for mediation or request a due process
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



hearing.
ij




Review of Existing Evaluation Data (REED) - ANS ✔✔ - Must be conducted by the ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



members of the ARD committee including the parent, but it does not have to take place in a

meeting. The members must review existing evaluation data about your child, including
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



information you provide to determine the scope of the evaluation, e.g., IEP At-A-Glance
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



must give you information about where an IEE may be obtained and must give you a copy
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



of the district's criteria for obtaining an IEE. The IEE must meet school district criteria. The
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



criteria will likely include the location of the evaluation and the qualifications of the
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



examiner. IEE at the school district expense, the school must either pay for this evaluation
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



or file a request for a due process hearing.
