Section 281.41.314. Progress monitoring and data collection.

       41.314(1) Evidence of progress in general education instruction. Each public agency shall establish standards, consistent with those the department may establish, by which the adequacy of general education instruction, including the quality and quantity of data gathered, is assessed, and whether such data are sufficient in quantity and quality to make decisions under Part B of the Act and this chapter.

       41.314(2) Progress monitoring and determining eligibility. Each public agency shall engage in progress monitoring of each individual’s progress as the department may require during the process of evaluating whether a child is an eligible individual and shall record such progress in any manner that the department may permit or require. If the AEA or LEA serving an individual imposes additional requirements for the monitoring of progress of individuals during the process of evaluation, personnel serving that individual shall comply with those additional requirements. The team determining the child’s eligibility may increase the frequency with which the child’s progress is monitored.

       41.314(3) Progress monitoring and eligible individuals. Each public agency shall engage in progress monitoring of each eligible individual’s progress as the department may require, and shall record such progress in any manner that the department may permit or require. If the AEA or LEA serving an eligible individual imposes additional requirements for the monitoring of progress of eligible individuals, personnel serving that individual shall comply with those additional requirements. An IEP team may increase the frequency with which an eligible individual’s progress is monitored.
