Can Schools Decide ESY Eligibility Without an IEP Meeting?


Can a school decide ESY eligibility with just a checklist?

Karen discusses why parents should understand how Extended School Year (ESY) eligibility is determined.

ESY decisions should be individualized and made by the IEP team based on the student's needs—not simply communicated through a checklist without meaningful team consideration.

If you're unsure about your school's process, reach out to your State Department of Education and ask about its ESY eligibility criteria and procedures.

Parents, you deserve to understand HOW and WHY ESY decisions are being made for your child!
