These forms reflect this increased role of parental involvement and associated parental responsibilities. All forms were developed with the understanding that state regulations are explicit regarding the role of the parent in all procedures that affect potential educational decisions regarding their child.Points to consider are included on the forms as cues to provide instructional personnel, parents, and students (if appropriate), information that will directly assist them in developing an appropriate Individualized Education Program (IEP) to meet each student’s unique needs.This statement provides to the users of the forms a concise description of how the form is to be used and for what purpose(s). Each form in this document is preceded by a purpose statement.Throughout the process of developing these forms, several points were maintained as being important in their design and content. Please note that, in addition to revising all of the previous model state forms, a number of new forms have been added (as specified next to the link to each form at the bottom of this page).
School districts that do not choose to use these model forms should make sure that the forms they are using address the requirements in the regulations. School districts may reformat and/or revise these forms to meet their own school district needs, or they may develop their own forms. Federal regulations do not require or endorse any specific format for a particular form. Adoption of these forms by school districts or educational service districts is optional. The information on the forms does not substitute for reading the regulations.
The forms contained on this webpage have been developed by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), Special Education Section, in compliance with the requirements of applicable state regulations contained in chapter 392-172A WAC.
