Book Description
"This document contains information about initial evaluation, including appropriate sources of data, eligibility determination, and includes Federal and State definitions of each exceptionality area as defined by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). It also provides information regarding exclusionary factors that must be considered and examples of indicators of eligibility to assist school personnel as they make decisions. The purpose of the document is to provide guidance to evaluation teams as they seek to address the two-prong test of eligibility when determining if a child is eligible for special education. These examples of indicators are not an exhaustive list, but provide guidance for evaluation teams. For further guidance and a more complete discussion of the initial evaluation process, see Chapter 3 in the Kansas Special Education Process Handbook."--Introduction.
