HB 800 -- Placement of Certain Special Education Students

Sponsor:  Lampe

Currently, when a child is receiving services under Part C of the
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and is ready to begin
early childhood services under Part B, school districts must give
preference to the child's Part C service provider unless it
exceeds the average cost per student of early childhood special
education in the district.  This bill specifies that school
districts give consideration to continuing with the Part C
provider when the child turns three during the regular school
year and removes the reference to cost.
