23    services provided. Protected income shall not be
24    considered by the Department in its determination of the
25    recipient's ability to pay a share of the cost of
26    services. The level of cost-sharing shall be adjusted each

18    which the person was not entitled; provided that such
19    recovery shall not be enforced against any real estate

10    Sec. 14-8.02. Identification, evaluation, and placement of
11children.
12    (a) The State Board of Education shall make rules under
13which local school boards shall determine the eligibility of
14children to receive special education. Such rules shall ensure
15that a free appropriate public education be available to all
16children with disabilities as defined in Section 14-1.02. The
17State Board of Education shall require local school districts
18to administer non-discriminatory procedures or tests to
19English learners coming from homes in which a language other
20than English is used to determine their eligibility to receive
21special education. The placement of low English proficiency
22students in special education programs and facilities shall be
23made in accordance with the test results reflecting the

 

 

HB0452- 29 -LRB102 12132 KTG 17469 b

1student's linguistic, cultural and special education needs.
2For purposes of determining the eligibility of children the
3State Board of Education shall include in the rules
4definitions of "case study", "staff conference",
5"individualized educational program", and "qualified
6specialist" appropriate to each category of children with
7disabilities as defined in this Article. For purposes of
8determining the eligibility of children from homes in which a
9language other than English is used, the State Board of
10Education shall include in the rules definitions for
11"qualified bilingual specialists" and "linguistically and
12culturally appropriate individualized educational programs".
13For purposes of this Section, as well as Sections 14-8.02a,
1414-8.02b, and 14-8.02c of this Code, "parent" means a parent
15as defined in the federal Individuals with Disabilities

18facilities except with a carefully completed case study fully
19reviewed by professional personnel in a multidisciplinary
20staff conference and only upon the recommendation of qualified
21specialists or a qualified bilingual specialist, if available.
22At the conclusion of the multidisciplinary staff conference,
23the parent of the child shall be given a copy of the
24multidisciplinary conference summary report and
25recommendations, which includes options considered, and be
26informed of his or her their right to obtain an independent

 

 

HB0452- 30 -LRB102 12132 KTG 17469 b

1educational evaluation if he or she disagrees they disagree
2with the evaluation findings conducted or obtained by the
3school district. If the school district's evaluation is shown
4to be inappropriate, the school district shall reimburse the
5parent for the cost of the independent evaluation. The State
6Board of Education shall, with advice from the State Advisory
7Council on Education of Children with Disabilities on the
8inclusion of specific independent educational evaluators,
9prepare a list of suggested independent educational
10evaluators. The State Board of Education shall include on the

15State Board of Education shall supply school districts with
16such list and make the list available to parents at their
17request. School districts shall make the list available to
18parents at the time they are informed of their right to obtain
19an independent educational evaluation. However, the school
20district may initiate an impartial due process hearing under
21this Section within 5 days of any written parent request for an
22independent educational evaluation to show that its evaluation
23is appropriate. If the final decision is that the evaluation
24is appropriate, the parent still has a right to an independent
25educational evaluation, but not at public expense. An
26independent educational evaluation at public expense must be

 

 

HB0452- 31 -LRB102 12132 KTG 17469 b

1completed within 30 days of a parent written request unless
2the school district initiates an impartial due process hearing
3or the parent or school district offers reasonable grounds to
4show that such 30-day 30 day time period should be extended. If
5the due process hearing decision indicates that the parent is
6entitled to an independent educational evaluation, it must be
7completed within 30 days of the decision unless the parent or
8the school district offers reasonable grounds to show that
9such 30-day 30 day period should be extended. If a parent
10disagrees with the summary report or recommendations of the
11multidisciplinary conference or the findings of any
12educational evaluation which results therefrom, the school
13district shall not proceed with a placement based upon such
14evaluation and the child shall remain in his or her regular
15classroom setting. No child shall be eligible for admission to
16a special class for children with a mental disability who are
17educable or for children with a mental disability who are
18trainable except with a psychological evaluation and
19recommendation by a school psychologist. Consent shall be
20obtained from the parent of a child before any evaluation is
21conducted. If consent is not given by the parent or if the
22parent disagrees with the findings of the evaluation, then the
23school district may initiate an impartial due process hearing
24under this Section. The school district may evaluate the child
25if that is the decision resulting from the impartial due
26process hearing and the decision is not appealed or if the

 

 

HB0452- 32 -LRB102 12132 KTG 17469 b

1decision is affirmed on appeal. The determination of
2eligibility shall be made and the IEP meeting shall be
3completed within 60 school days from the date of written

5consent is obtained with fewer than 60 pupil attendance days
6left in the school year, the eligibility determination shall
7be made and the IEP meeting shall be completed prior to the
8first day of the following school year. Special education and
9related services must be provided in accordance with the
10student's IEP no later than 10 school attendance days after
11notice is provided to the parents pursuant to Section 300.503
12of Title 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations and
13implementing rules adopted by the State Board of Education.
14The appropriate program pursuant to the individualized
15educational program of students whose native tongue is a
16language other than English shall reflect the special
17education, cultural and linguistic needs. No later than
18September 1, 1993, the State Board of Education shall
19establish standards for the development, implementation and
20monitoring of appropriate bilingual special individualized
21educational programs. The State Board of Education shall
22further incorporate appropriate monitoring procedures to
23verify implementation of these standards. The district shall
24indicate to the parent and the State Board of Education the
25nature of the services the child will receive for the regular
26school term while waiting placement in the appropriate special

5student's individualized education program shall include plans
6for (i) determining the student's eligibility for those
7home-based services, (ii) enrolling the student in the program
8of home-based services, and (iii) developing a plan for the
9student's most effective use of the home-based services after
10the student becomes an adult and no longer receives special
11educational services under this Article. The plans developed
12under this paragraph shall include specific actions to be
13taken by specified individuals, agencies, or officials.
14    (c) In the development of the individualized education
15program for a student who is functionally blind, it shall be
16presumed that proficiency in Braille reading and writing is
17essential for the student's satisfactory educational progress.
18For purposes of this subsection, the State Board of Education
19shall determine the criteria for a student to be classified as
20functionally blind. Students who are not currently identified
21as functionally blind who are also entitled to Braille
22instruction include: (i) those whose vision loss is so severe
23that they are unable to read and write at a level comparable to
24their peers solely through the use of vision, and (ii) those
25who show evidence of progressive vision loss that may result
26in functional blindness. Each student who is functionally

 

 

HB0452- 36 -LRB102 12132 KTG 17469 b

1blind shall be entitled to Braille reading and writing
2instruction that is sufficient to enable the student to
3communicate with the same level of proficiency as other
4students of comparable ability. Instruction should be provided
5to the extent that the student is physically and cognitively
6able to use Braille. Braille instruction may be used in
7combination with other special education services appropriate
8to the student's educational needs. The assessment of each
9student who is functionally blind for the purpose of
10developing the student's individualized education program
11shall include documentation of the student's strengths and
12weaknesses in Braille skills. Each person assisting in the
13development of the individualized education program for a
14student who is functionally blind shall receive information
15describing the benefits of Braille instruction. The
16individualized education program for each student who is
17functionally blind shall specify the appropriate learning
18medium or media based on the assessment report.
19    (d) To the maximum extent appropriate, the placement shall
20provide the child with the opportunity to be educated with
21children who do not have a disability; provided that children
22with disabilities who are recommended to be placed into
23regular education classrooms are provided with supplementary
24services to assist the children with disabilities to benefit
25from the regular classroom instruction and are included on the
26teacher's regular education class register. Subject to the

 

 

HB0452- 37 -LRB102 12132 KTG 17469 b

1limitation of the preceding sentence, placement in special
2classes, separate schools or other removal of the child with a
3disability from the regular educational environment shall
4occur only when the nature of the severity of the disability is
5such that education in the regular classes with the use of
6supplementary aids and services cannot be achieved
7satisfactorily. The placement of English learners with
8disabilities shall be in non-restrictive environments which
9provide for integration with peers who do not have
10disabilities in bilingual classrooms. Annually, each January,
