Parents of a child with a disability have the right to request an IEE. An IEE is broadly defined as an evaluation conducted by a qualified examiner who is not employed by the public agency responsible for the education of the child in question. When the student’s parents disagree with the school district’s evaluation and request an IEE at public expense, the school district must pay for the IEE or request a due process hearing.
Because the request can be broad in nature, CESA 8 has a variety of staff trained to conduct evaluations.
