or provide evidence that ESY has, in this particular district, been approved or disapproved because of cost. What her email does show is a total lack of sense to even link the two in an email to staff.
Actually proud, yes an IEP team can make ESY a team decision. However, that does not mean that a district has to agree with it. The district has options to agree or not to agree to any service on an IEP and the parent then has options to pursue a hearing if they feel it is necessary. Most school staff have already provided supportive evidence for ESY on the plaaf section of the IEP and /or spoken with admin. so that it does not become a problem. Also, different states have differing standards for the provision of ESY. Something that is not included in this article.
The district is a part of the "team". They may be represented by a Sped administrator but they do have a right and responsibility to write a viable IEP-up to an including ESY. Many smaller districts share an ESY service as the numbers are generally small. Not every district has its own program. Transportation is included to and from the ESY site.
