Deadline extended for surrogate parent training
8/8/2022
The Department has extended the deadline for current surrogate parents to complete the required training to Aug. 14. As a reminder, all surrogate parents must complete the training before serving for the 2022-2023 school year.
A surrogate parent represents a student with disabilities in all matters relating to the identification, evaluation, educational placement and provision of a free appropriate public education (FAPE) to the child. The superintendent of a student’s district of residence or a court appoints surrogate parents in accordance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act and Operating Standards for Students with Disabilities.
