§ 56325, the receiving LEA, in consultation with the parent/guardian, shall complete the Interim Placement (IP) packet within the Web IEP System. The Interim Placement packet includes: • the demographics page documenting all relevant information concerning the child, • the offer of FAPE page documenting their educational program, • the final page documenting any Special Factors listed on the current IEP from the previous LEA, and • a signature by a school or district administrator acknowledging the Interim Placement. A copy of the Interim Placement packet is given to the parent/guardian and forwarded to all related service providers and relevant staff members for implementation of the child’s special education program. A copy of the previously approved IEP should be given to the teacher(s), uploaded into the Web IEP system, and placed in the special education pupil file. If a child with a disability transfers to the Charter LEA during the school year from a Charter LEA within the Desert/Mountain Charter SELPA, the Charter LEA shall continue, without delay, to provide services comparable to those described in the existing IEP, unless the child’s parent and Charter LEA agree to develop, adopt, and implement a new IEP that is consistent with state and federal laws (Title 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations § 300.323; Education Code § 56325). If a child with a disability transfers to the Charter LEA during the school year from a California LEA outside of the Desert/Mountain Charter SELPA, the Charter LEA shall provide the child with FAPE, including services comparable to those described in the previous LEA’s IEP. Within 30 days, the Charter LEA shall, in consultation with the parents, adopt the other LEA’s IEP or shall develop, adopt, and implement a new IEP that is consistent with state and federal laws (Title 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations § 300.323; Education Code § 56325) . If a child with a disability transfers to the Charter LEA within the Desert/Mountain Charter SELPA during the school year from an out-of-state LEA, the Charter LEA shall provide the child with FAPE, including services comparable to the out-of-state LEA's IEP, in consultation with the parent, until such time as the Charter LEA conducts an assessment, if the Charter LEA determines that such an assessment is necessary, and develops, adopts, and implements a new IEP, if appropriate (Title 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations § 300.323; Education Code § 56325) . The law allows an LEA to address the IEP within the LEA’s existing programs and services to the greatest extent possible for a period not to exceed the 30-day placement; therefore, it is not necessary for the parent/guardian to sign the proposed Interim Placement (IP) form. When programs or services that were provided in the former district are not in place in the new LEA at the time of enrollment, an alternative program within the LEA, a referral to a program operated by another agency, or placement in a nonpublic school may be necessary. The parent must give consent for placement in a program that is not in conformity with the current IEP. When the IEP team meets for the 30-day review, the IEP team shall review all aspects of the IEP through the IEP process. Whether the LEA adopts the previously approved individualized education program or develops, adopts, and implements a new individualized education program, the next annual review date must align with the previous goal review date.
