Recording consent for initial evaluation for special education services in SESIS

When a parent or guardian signs the consent form to allow his or her child to be evaluated for special education services, the form must be faxed into SESIS. The student's profile is then updated to reflect that consent has been provided or denied.

Note: The assessment planning process cannot proceed before consent is obtained.
