Related Service information!

Good Morning!!!

I just wanted to clarify for you the circumstances in which the District is responsible for payment for PT and OT services.

PT and OT are only payable by the school IF the service is listed in the related services section of the IEP. The PT/OT should have provided goals for us. The services should be referenced on the 2nd page of the IEP (student profile) and on the Evaluation Programming Conference Form (p.1 under related services and p.2 in adverse affect AND programming recommendations).

The student will ONLY qualify for PT and OT to be a related service on the IEP IF the child needs the service in order to provide FAPE (access educational opportunity). 

If you have specific questions, please do not hesitate to call me!

Have a wonderful day!
