REFUSAL OF SERVICES

UNDER THE INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES EDUCATION ACT, SCHOOLS ARE REQUIRED TO FIND, IDENTIFY, AND EVALUATE CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES UNDER CHILD FIND.  THIS MEANS THAT A PARENT DOES NOT HAVE TO REQUEST AN EVALUATION.

WHEN A CHILD IS EVALUATED, IF A PARENT DISAGREES, THEY MAY REQUEST AN ADDITIONAL EVALUATION WHICH THE SCHOOL HAS THE AFFIRMATIVE DUTY TO PAY FOR.
