IEP Amendments vs. Reconvene in SESIS
New York City Department of Education | Special Education Student Information System Project
Amendments Depending on the circumstance
the user may create a Notice of IEP Meeting, or a Waiver of IEP Meeting, when an IEP Amendment is needed.
The Date of IEP will be the same as the IEP being amended when an IEP Amendment is completed.
Associated compliance dates will not change.
The attendance page may be required as part of an IEP amendment.
Reconvenes
A Notice of IEP Meeting will always be created for an IEP Reconvene.
For IEP Reconvenes the new IEP date will be entered on the IEP and captured on the Student Profile once the document is finalized.
Compliance dates will adjust accordingly based on the new IEP Date.
The attendance page is always required as part of a Reconvene.
