PRIOR WRITTEN NOTICE
IDEA requires prior written notice to parents whenever the district proposes or refuses to initiate or change the identification, evaluation, or educational placement
of a student (E.C. § 56500.4(a)). This notice creates a clear record of what, when, and why action was taken and can avoid future factual disputes between the parents and
the district. If written notice is not provided and a dispute leads to due process proceedings, it may be determined that the district denied the student a free and appropriate public education (FAPE) and must, therefore, provide such things as
reimbursement to parents for private services and attorney's fees.

Elements of the Written Notice
Legal mandates specify that the content of the written notice must include:

  1. A description of the action proposed or refused;
  2. An explanation of the why the district proposes or refuses to take action;
  3. A description of each assessment procedure, record, or report used as a basis for making the decision;
  4. A description of other options the agency considered and why those options were rejected;
  5. A description of other factors that are relevant to the decision; and
  6. A statement of the availability of procedural safeguards and how to obtain a copy; and
  7. Sources for parents to contact to obtain assistance in understanding the provisions of the law.
(E.C. §56500.4(b)(1)-(7))

Written Offer of Educational Placement
When the action being proposed or denied is an educational placement, the descriptions provided in the written notice should include, but not be limited to, the
following specific information:

  1. Type of placement or service (e.g. specialized academic instruction, occupational therapy);
  2. The school site where the placement or service is located;
  3. Provider/Agency (e.g., special education teacher/PVUSD, physical therapist/CCS);
  4. Names and qualifications of personnel, if relevant;
  5. The daily schedule, if relevant;
  6. Special equipment to be provided; and
  7. Any other features of special relevance to the student such as class size, peer tutoring, socialization groups, etc.
Providing the Notice
The notice may be given prior to or at the same time that the district requests the parents' consent to the action. Notice can be provided through any one or a combination of the following documents: on the IEP, in a separate written notice form, in a letter, and/or in any other clear written statement.

Multiple Offers
It is usually not recommended that the district offer more than one specific educational placement. Making a single offer gives the parents the benefit of professional judgment and demonstrates that the district has carefully thought through and selected a placement that will meet the unique and individual needs of the student.

CONSENT FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE IEP
Informed parental consent is required prior to initiation of initial special education services (E.C. § 56346(a)). If a parent refuses to provide such consent, the district
shall not be considered to be in violation of the requirement to provide FAPE (E.C. § 56346(b)) and shall not request a due process to override the lack of consent (OSEP letter to Fulfrost, 2004).
