In the new school district, a group of persons knowledgeable about the evaluation data regarding your child and placement options in the district should review the plan. If the team determines that the plan is appropriate, then the district must implement it. If the team determines that the plan is not appropriate, the district should conduct new evaluations and develop a new plan.
