If the IEP team agrees that services are appropriate, the services should be listed on an Addendum to the IEP including the NPA, projected start date, duration, and frequency. The Addendum should be forwarded to the Program Manager for Resolution Support Services at the SELPA. Within five business days of receipt of the Addendum to the IEP, the Program Manager for Resolution Support Services at the SELPA will develop an ISA and forward it to the appropriate NPA for signature who will then determine initiation of services. Section 5: Nonpublic School Initial Referral Nonpublic schools (NPS) provide educational settings and services to students who meet the eligibility criteria for special education and are experiencing behavior difficulties that are too significant to be accommodated within a public-school environment. Pre-Referral Local Education Agency (LEA) Responsibility 1. Convene an Individualized Education Program (IEP) meeting to document the team’s decision to refer the student for a change of placement to an NPS setting. 2. Complete the Nonpublic School Placement Referral form (D/M 134) and obtain the signatures of the person making the referral and the director of special education. Specify the team’s preference for a specific NPS, if applicable. Referral Procedures Forward the following completed documents to the attention of the Nonpublic School Coordinator at the SELPA. • D/M 134 Nonpublic School Placement Referral form • IEP or IEP Addendum dated within one year of the referral for NPS placement (Annual and Triennial IEP needs to be current) • Psycho-educational evaluation dated within three years of the referral for NPS placement • If the last triennial was completed with a Triennial Assessment Determination form (D/M 119), include the last full psycho-educational report • Any additional information
