IEPs. Federal and State regulations require the regular monitoring of IEP progress on a quarterly basis. This should be aligned with the Charter School’s report card and grading system. If the School suspects that a child’s needs exceed the ability of the Charter School to implement a student’s IEP at the Charter School, the Charter School will expeditiously contact the assigned LCPS Department of Special Education personnel for a consultation. If LCPS staff together with the School IEP team determine that the School cannot implement the IEP, an IEP team meeting will convene to determine if the IEP is appropriate, revise as necessary, and determine placement. The Charter School’s failure to comply with this provision, after notice and an opportunity to cure is grounds for revocation of the charter and may also, without the need for placing the Charter School on probation, result in a suspension of payments to the Charter School and/or revocation. Within two (2) days of the enrollment of each student, the Charter School shall supply the name of the student to the Director of Special Education to determine if the student has been found eligible for services in accordance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and to arrange services. A LCPS Special Education representative or designee will be entitled to attend and participate in all IEP team meetings and any other activities related to the provision of special education and services to students.

Unit members shall be compensated at 11 the district extra-assignment hourly rate for additional time 12 beyond the workday.
