This annotated document describes the contents of the Agreement to Waive Reevaluation form, which is used by the LEA to obtain agreement from the parent to waive a child’s reevaluation. This document also replaces the September 2008 version and includes a change in terminology that replaces the term “mental retardation” with the term “intellectual disability.” This change aligns the Commonwealth’s special education regulations in Chapter 14 and Chapter 711 to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) regulatory revisions resulting from Rosa’s Law. The change in terminology does not affect the meaning or the eligibility determination associated with the term.

The Communication Plan must be included in the IEP of any student who is deaf or hard of hearing. The Communication Plan form was revised July 2022. At that time changes were made in Sections l, lll, and IV. Sections have been reduced to Sections l and Section ll. Section l: Language and Communication Needs, includes a sign-in area for contributors, asks for data to support conclusions and includes a chart to address primary language and communication mode. Section lll has updated the language for assistive technology, devices, and services. Section lll requires the team to examine if the student has appropriate academic language and communication skills to participate in and access curriculum and instruction. Section lV, Full Range of Needs, has been made into a question thus requiring more discussion. Glossary terms have also been added, revised or deleted as appropriate. The revised plan has a footer reading October 14, 2022. Annotated version available

The primary purpose of the Communication Plan is to establish discussion among all IEP team members who review the student’s needs based on communication skills and access. The Communication Plan should be the starting point for the IEP, and the results of this discussion should be used to identify the student’s present educational levels as well as to complete other sections of the IEP. The Annotated Communication Plan was revised in July 2022. At that time changes were made in Sections l, lll, and IV. Sections have been reduced to l and ll. Changes have been made in the following areas: Section l, including assessments and data to determine the student’s language and communication mode, and a revised chart to inform the school team of the student’s preferred method for learning and communication. Section ll, describe how the student is accessing grade level curriculum and instruction, and how is it delivered directly to the student using preferred language and communication mode. Glossary terms have also been added, revised, or deleted as appropriate. The revised version has October 14, 2022 in the footer.
