Approval Process

 Approval Process

  1. Summary of the evaluations and recommendations from the MDT are forwarded to the NYSSD superintendent for consideration. If the superintendent agrees with the MDT recommendation, a letter, along with the evaluations and recommendations, is forwarded to the parent, the school district, and Regional Associate. 
     

  2. The Regional Associate reviews the evaluations and the recommendations and approves/disapproves the appointment to NYSSD.  If the Regional Associate agrees that NYSSD can provide an appropriate program and is the least restrictive environment for the child, a letter approving the appointment of the child to NYSSD is sent to the parent and the school district. 
     

  3. If the MDT or the superintendent does not recommend appointment of the child at NYSSD, or the Regional Associate disagrees with the recommendation for appointment,  the parent may appeal through procedural due process.
