reasonable steps to promptly obtain the records of a child with a disability transferring into the Charter LEA, including his/her IEP and the supporting documents related to the provision of special education and related services from the previous school in which the student was enrolled ( Title 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations § 300.323; Education Code § 56325 ). In order to meet the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS) requirements for ALL students with an IEP transferring into an LEA pursuant to Education Code § 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 DMCS, 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 DMCS, 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 ).
