 A Georgia teenager had an IEP, that addressed his ADHD and

behavior.

 Toward the very end of the next school year, his parents told the

district that they no longer wanted special education and related services for the student.

 The student transferred to a different Georgia district in the summer

during the new school's open enrollment period. In February, following numerous suspensions, the parents asked the new district to reinstate the student's prior program.

 School officials tried to meet with the parents, unsuccessfully, but

never implemented the prior IEP. The student's disciplinary problems, such as hitting other students and exhibiting aggressive behavior toward a teacher, continued. He was ultimately expelled without a manifestation determination.

 The parents claimed that the district violated

the IDEA by failing to implement the previous

• IEP. Did the district err in failing to implement

the student’s prior IEP? Discuss and support your response.

Did the distr ic t e r r by failing to imple me nt the te e n's pr ior IE P?

 A. No. A district is free to decline to provide

special education to a transfer student if it has no reason to suspect the student is still eligible.

 B. Yes. If an intrastate transfer student had an

IEP that was in effect at a prior school, it must implement that document or develop and implement a new IEP.

 C. No. The district was required to treat the

parents' request as a request for an initial evaluation.
