Nebraska Eligibility Guidelines

Nebraska Eligibility Guidelines are intended to assist MDTs in gathering information from multiple sources (to be used along with informed professional judgement) to determine if a child meets criteria to be identified as a child with a disability in need of special education services. Having said that, the document serves as a guide as opposed to Rule 51 which outlines regulations and standards (state law).
