Are you looking for experiences for this school year under the new rules? I haven't done it yet. Hopefully we'll settle and have DCPS agree to the location of services (nonpublic school) since they agreed on the need for placement in full-time SPED program.

These are the latest Safeguards we have. http://osse.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/osse/publication/attachments/Part%20B%20Procedural%20Safeguards.pdf

Do you have legal representation or are you starting from scratch?

Not the PP but you are right. A state complaint is the right avenue if you've exhausted the escalation points at your school.

We haven't done it, so no advice or feedback.

Thanks. I don't think due process would be appropriate for us, although I'd be happy to be told I'm wrong. We agree about placement and location of services, but the agreed upon iep is not being implemented.
