If the student does not attend the Transition IEP meeting, what steps must the school district take to ensure that the students needs, preferences, and interests are considered?
IDEA requires that the student’s needs, preferences, and interests be considered. If the student does not attend the meeting, the school district must take other steps which may include the consideration of: • Interest inventories • Self-determination and transition assessments • Situational assessments • Documented results of interviews and student conferences • Performance assessments from work experiences • Work samples • Career plan • A person-centered plan This information may be included in a transition portfolio. Documentation of these other steps must be maintained in a manner determined by the school district.
