December and January. A guidance document by the State Education
Department is also available through the Instructional Support
Office. |

|
C. IEP
Scheduling Options Available for Districts |
|
We will
again offer three options for the IEP development process during
the specified periods listed above. The desired option
must be selected by the CSE no later than December 19th, 2008 |
| |
|
Option I |
District CSE committees will be
scheduled to come to the McKownville Methodist Church to hold
meetings. Days will be assigned by program and supervisory
area. A matrix developed by the supervisors to accommodate
districts and teachers in specific time slots will be sent to the
CSE. |
|
Option II |
BOCES teachers will be available at
their school sites for teleconference calls from CSE chairpersons
at designated times. |
|
Option III |
CSE
committees may elect to go to the program site to meet with the
teacher/staff. |
| |
|
It is our
plan to collaborate with our districts as best we can to comply
with the intent of the Regulations. Additionally, communication
with the CSE is extremely important as we continue to work
together to develop and provide quality programs and services
for students with disabilities. If you have any questions,
please do not hesitate to contact me or your Supervisor. |
| |
|
Thanks for
your continuing assistance and support. |
