Reevaluation Data Review – This is Step 1 in the reevaluation process.This may be the only step in the process for many students. As part of the reevaluation process, the IEP Team, including the parent and other qualified professionals must review evaluation data, including but not limited to the current full eligibility on the child that is already available. This review may include evaluations and information provided by the parent, current classroom-based local or state assessments, classroom-based observations, and observations by the teacher and related service providers. This review may be conducted without a meeting if the parent and LEA agree not to convene a meeting for this purpose.  If no additional information is needed, this completes the reevaluation process and the date of this determination is the child’s reevaluation date. 


Reevaluation Process Waiver- This is a signed agreement that takes place before a reevalution begins and is an opportunity for the parent and the public agency to agree that a reevalution or a review of data is unnecessary. 

  • In GO-IEP this option is currently limited to users with the role of system administrator.
  • Special Education Directors may want to review which users have the role of a system administrator within GO-IEP.  All system administrators will have the ability to access this option. 


Evaluation- If a decision is made to conduct additional assessments, a variety of evaluation tools and strategies would be used to gather relevant academic, functional and developmental information about the student, including information provided by the parents that may assist in determining any needed additional information for the reasons listed during the data review process. Assess the relative contribution of cognitive and behavioral factors, in addition to physical or developmental factors.


Reevaluation Eligibility – If a decision is made to conduct additional assessments, then after the assessments are complete, the Team reviews those assessments and determines the child’s continued eligibility and educational needs.  Once this determination is made, this completes the reevaluation process and the date of this determination is the child’s reevaluation date. This step in the process involves the completion of a new Eligibility form.
