Introduction Successful transitions are well-planned, thoughtful actions designed to accomplish particular outcomes. Planning and communication are essential to provide a smooth transition and to encourage and sustain collaboration among the families and agencies involved to ensure appropriate services for the child. A transition plan includes several systems and will serve as a guide to participants throughout the transition process. This policy is to provide Charter Local Education Agencies (LEAs) with the legal requirements and preferred practices regarding transition for young, middle, and high school students with disabilities. It addresses the transition of children from one educational or intervention program to another, and from high school to adult life.
