Growth Mindset Quotation for the Week of Jan. 18
“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act but a habit.”
Aristotle
Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and scientist born in the city of Stagira, Chalkidice, on the northern periphery of Classical Greece. His
father, Nicomachus, died when Aristotle was a child, where after Pyroxenes of Atreus became his guardian.
Born: 384 BC, Stagira, Aristoteles, GreeceDied: 322 BC, Chalcis, Greece
Aristotle is said to have written 150 philosophical treatises. The 30 that survive touch on an enormous range of philosophical problems, from biology and physics to morals to aesthetics to politics. Many, however, are thought to be "lecture notes" instead of complete, polished treatises, and a few may not be the work of Aristotle but of members of his school.

IEP Tip for the Week of Jan 18
Independent Educational
Evaluation (IEE)
The parent of a child with a
disability may request an IEE
and may be entitled for an IEE at public expense.
An IEE is an evaluation
conducted by a person who is not employed by the
district.
The parent may be granted an IEE only if he or she disagree with an
evaluation conducted by the
district.
Contact the district office
as soon as you learn about an
IEE request

IEP Tip of the Week
Generally, the parent is not
entitled to an IEE if the district has not conducted its own assessment in the
area of the evaluation.
Sometimes parents may provide staff with a copy
of an evaluation. This may be a speech report,
psychological assessment, an OT
evaluation, or any other assessment conducted by
an outside provider. If staff receive an evaluation, the case
manager must immediately
schedule an IEP to review the IEE
provided by the parent.
At the IEP the school district staff
will consider the recommendations
and amend the child’s IEP program
if appropriate.
