Parent Rights for Special Education

The Parent Rights for Special Education provides parents of children with disabilities from preschool through age 21 an overview of their educational rights pertaining to special education. These pages are the DoDEA Notice of Parent Rights for parents and surrogate parents. This Notice of Parent Rights must be provided to you at least once per year and when:

  • You ask for a copy;
  • You request an evaluation;
  • You submit a due process complaint for the first time;
  • The first time your child is referred for a special education evaluation; and
  • If the school decides to take disciplinary action against your child that would change your child’s educational placement.

We hope the following will provide you additional clarification of the many rights afforded to you and your child.

DoDEA is committed to creating an educational partnership with you with the goal of providing quality special education services to your child in accordance with DoD Instruction 1342.12. If at anytime you have additional questions regarding your child’s educational program, please do not hesitate to speak with your child’s classroom teacher and/or special educator, and school administrator.

For questions pertaining to district special education procedures, the District Special Education Coordinator is available.
