RE:     Approval Process for Alternate IEP Forms

OREGON ALTERNATE IEP FORM APPROVAL PROCESS

Under Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 581-015-2215, all districts and ESDs in Oregon must use the Oregon Standard IEP form, unless they have applied for and been granted approval for use of an alternate IEP form by the Oregon Department of Education (ODE).  Any districts or ESDs who received prior ODE approval for alternate IEP forms must reapply for approval of any alternate IEP forms if they decide not to use the Oregon Standard IEP.

The Oregon Standard IEP form is available in two formats: for students age 15 or younger when the IEP is in effect; and for students age 16 and older when the IEP is in effect (transition age students). To review the Oregon Standard IEP form, go to http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=1163.

Districts and ESDs may now apply for approval for use of an alternate IEP form for the 2012-2013 school year.  The due date for submission of the application to use an alternate IEP form is February 27, 2012.  The directions for submission of an alternate IEP form are attached and are also available online:  http://www.ode.state.or.us/pubs/forms/iep/alternateiepguide.doc

All questions related to the submission of alternate IEP forms can be directed to Robbi Perry, 503-947-5782 or e-mail robbi.perry at state.or.us<mailto:robbi.perry at state.or.us> .
