Evaluation (Delaware)
Last Modified on 12/16/2024 9:46 am CST
Evaluations are used to document the student's educational needs and the student's determination of eligibility for special education. This document describes each editor, a description of each field on the editor, and any special considerations and instructions for using the editor and fields.
An evaluation must be created whether or not the student is determined to have a disability. A copy of the evaluation summary report, including the eligibility documentation, is given to the student’s parents by the school district.
The current print format is DE Evaluation 2024. Delaware is a State Edition and districts cannot change the evaluation format.
