Millwood reports one missed IEP led to Indicator 13 remediation plan
Summary
District special-education staff told the board the district missed full Indicator 13 compliance by one student's IEP because of timeline issues during staffing transitions and described a plan of targeted PD, weekly monitoring, and state-submitted corrective steps to restore compliance.
A district staff member identified in the transcript as Caitlin explained Indicator 13 — a state and federal reporting requirement related to transition services for students with disabilities — and reported that Millwood missed 100% compliance by one student because of an IEP timeline issue during staffing transitions.
Caitlin described corrective steps the district has put in place: targeted professional development for special-education teachers, improved use of transition assessment data, weekly monitoring of IEP timelines by the special-education coordinator, and immediate notification to the assigned case manager and building principal if an IEP is identified as noncompliant. She said the completed IEP has been sent to the state department and that state monitoring (random sampling) will begin within the regular review schedule.
Why it matters: Indicator 13 compliance is tied to federal and state monitoring of transition planning for students with disabilities. Missing required IEP components can affect district compliance status and may require remediation and documentation to state reviewers.
Next steps recorded in the transcript: the district will continue weekly monitoring and measure effectiveness through end-of-year reports and random compliance reviews, and it expects state sampling of IEPs next year as part of ongoing oversight.
