| Pursuant
to 511 IAC Article 7, any individual, group of individuals,
agency, or organization may file a complaint with
the Division of Exceptional Learners when they believe
the school corporation or special education planning
district is violating state or federal laws that apply
to special education programs. Within 30 days of receiving
the written complaint, the Division investigates the
complaint, determines whether a violation has occurred,
and issues a report. If a violation is found, the
complaint investigator also determines what corrective
action must be taken and monitors compliance. For
easy reference, the last two digits of the number
assigned to the complaint indicate the year in which
the complaint was filed (e.g., Complaint number 1508.00
was filed in the year 2000). |
