These two technical assistance papers are designed to provide further clarification to Florida school districts regarding the completion of matrices for students with disabilities and on the documentation of the amount of services a student receives on an Individualized Education Program (IEP). The "Matrix of Services" is used to document the individualized special education and related services that a student with disabilities is receiving as documented on the student's IEP, educational plan, or family support plan. This paper, published in January 2000, was developed in response to district concerns that the revised "Matrix of Services Handbook" has resulted in lower matrix ratings even for those students receiving intensive services. The questions and answers provided in the paper are designed to clarify some of the areas that were identified as problematic during meetings with special education administrators. It specifically addresses: the level of documentation required for students with a matrix rating of 251; documentation needed to check a service on the matrix; requirements for functional behavioral assessments; requirements for speech therapy; requirements for organizational strategies; and consultation services. The second technical assistance paper, published in August 2001, provides answers to frequently asked questions on the documentation of the amount of special education and related services on the IEP.
