The Notice of Procedural Safeguards explains the rights and responsibilities of parents under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Pittsburg ISD provides this document to parents at least annually and as required.
The Parent’s Guide to the Admission, Review, and Dismissal Process (Parent’s Guide) is a comprehensive, easily understood document that explains the individualized education program (IEP) process for a student in a special education program. The parents’ rights is intended to be a companion document to, not a replacement for, the Procedural Safeguards as it incoporates a parents’ rights and responsibilities concerning the ARD process.
