Extended School Year

This PaTTAN publication explains how to determine Extended School Year (ESY) eligibility for students receiving special education services. It stresses an individualized, data-driven approach by the IEP team, considering regression, recoupment, and the student’s unique needs. The guidance also highlights the importance of parental involvement and adhering to federal and state regulations. 

The annotated Individualized Education Program (IEP) communicates the meaning and purpose of each section of a student's IEP and how parents can participate in its development.
