Procedure
The referral representative will make the initial contact with Pathways Day School staff and a referral packet completed. A recommended evaluation meeting will be arranged to review the child’s educational, medical, sociological and psychological status to determine the appropriateness of the placement.

Before a child with a disability is placed in our school, the local school division shall initiate and conduct an Individualized Education Program (IEP) meeting in accordance with the requirements set forth in the regulations governing Special Education Programs. The local school division shall ensure that all representatives of the private school or facility attend the meeting. If the representative cannot attend, the local school division shall use other methods to ensure participation by the private school or facility, including individual or conference telephone calls.

For private referrals the parent will assemble the above mentioned information and make it available to Pathways Day School.

Based on information submitted Pathways Day School will make the decision to accept or reject the child's application for admission. The parent/guardian and appropriate school division and/or referral source will be notified in writing of the decision. Once the parent and local education agency are notified of acceptance, an orientation meeting must be held and the completed admission's paperwork submitted before a student may attend the school.
