all areas suspected disability by tests that are not racially, culturally, or
linguistically biased. Students are to receive several types of assessments,
administered by trained personnel; a single evaluation procedure is not
permitted for either planning or placement.

IDEA: Procedural due process
Give this one a try later!
IDEA affords parents/guardians several safeguards as it pertains to their
child's education. Parent/guardians have the right to confidentiality of
records, to examine all records, to obtain an independent evaluation; to
receive written notification (in parent's native language) of proposed
changes to their child's educational classification or placement; and to an
impartial hearing whenever disagreements arise regarding educational
planes for their son/daughter.
The student's parents/guardians have the right to representation by legal
counsel.
IDEA: Parent right to evaluation at public expense
Give this one a try later!
, You have the right to an independent educational evaluation (IEE) of your
child at public expense if you disagree with an evaluation of your child
obtained by the administrative unit, subject to the following conditions:
1. If you request an IEE of your child at public expense, the administrative
unit must, without unnecessary delay, either: (a) File a due process
complaint to request a hearing to show that its evaluation of your child is
appropriate; or (b) Provide an IEE at public expense, unless the
administrative unit demonstrates in a hearing that the evaluation of your
child that you obtained did not meet the administrative unit's criteria.
2. If the administrative unit requests a hearing and the final decision is that
the administrative unit's evaluation of your child is appropriate, you still
have the right to an IEE, but not at public expense.
3. If you request an IEE of your child, the administrative unit may ask why
you object to the evaluation of your child obtained by the administrative
unit. However, the administrative unit may not require you to provide an
explanation and may not unreasonably delay either providing the IEE of
your child at public expense or filing a due process complaint to request a
due process hearing to defend the administrative unit's evaluation of your
child.
Parent-initiated evaluations
If you obtain an independent educational evaluation of your child at public
expense or you share with the administrative unit an evaluation of your
child that you obtained at private expense:
1. The administrative unit must consider the results of the evaluation of your
child, if it meets the administrative unit's criteria for IEEs, in any decision
made with respect to the provision of a free appropriate public education
(FAPE) to your child; and
2. You or the administrative unit may present the evaluation as evidence at a
due process hearing regarding your child.
