Special Education Electronic Individualized Education Program (IEP) System. Fiscal Year 2016 Report to the Legislature. As Required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 125A.085
Minnesota Department of Education
In 2013, the Minnesota Legislature appropriated $1.763M for Fiscal Year 2014 to create a statewide system for special education paperwork. In 2014, the Legislature greatly expanded the requirements of the system but did not appropriate additional resources to maintain ongoing operation of the system. The 2014 legislation codified the system in statute and made the system mandatory for all public schools starting in the 2018-2019 school year. The 2015 Legislature further amended the statute to remove the mandatory requirement and make the system purely voluntary for public school use. The purpose of this report is to comply with the requirements under Minnesota Statutes §125A.085. This law requires the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) commissioner to annually, by February 1, submit to the Legislature a report on the status, recent changes, and sustainability of the online system for Individualized Education Programs (IEP) for students with disabilities needing special education services.
