march 3, 2010 To – District Administrators and Open Enrollment Coordinators From – Mary Jo Cleaver and Merry Larsen, Open Enrollment Consultants Subject – Form for requesting special education/expulsions and 2010-11 tuition waiver form Thank you for your patience as we are working to get these updated forms on the open enrollment web site. In the meantime: REQUESTING SPECIAL EDUCATION/EXPULSION RECORDS You can request these records by letter or email. Here is language for the request: To: Administrator, School District (Name of Resident School District) In accordance with s. 118.51 (8), Wis. Stats., and s. PI 36.03 (1) (e), Wis. Adm. Code, I hereby request the following information related to the above-named student: 1. Information about whether the student has been referred for special education, but has not yet been evaluated. 2. Information about the student’s special education program, including a copy of the student’s individualized education program (IEP). 3. Information about any pending disciplinary proceeding that could lead to expulsion, including a written explanation of the reason(s) for the pending disciplinary proceeding and the possible outcomes of the disciplinary proceeding. 4. A copy of any expulsion order involving the pupil for the 2007-2008, 2008-09 and/or 2009-10 school year, including a written explanation of the reason(s) for the expulsion and the length of the term of the expulsion. 2010-11 TUITION WAIVER FORM If you believe you absolutely must have parents fill out 2010-11 tuition waiver forms before the updated form is on the web site, you can use the 2009-10 form and write in the 2010-11 school year. We hope this provides some assistance until we are able to get these forms on the web site.
