SE 3 Special requirements for determination of specific learning disability (SLD) When a student suspected of having a specific learning disability is evaluated, the Team creates a written determination as to whether or not he or she has a specific learning disability, which is signed by all members of the Team, or if there is disagreement as to the determination, one or more Team members document their disagreement. If SLD is the existing or suspected disability, the special education clerk will check on the Observation Evaluation Consent Form. The sped clerk will provide the observation forms to the sped contact who will identify an teacher who will observe the student and complete the forms. The tester or person presenting the evaluation results presents a specific learning disability determination form for completion and signature at meetings for all students for whom this area was assessed as a suspected disability category. Staff sign agreement with the designation of the disability area. Team members who are in disagreement with the determination of a specific learning disability provide written documentation of their disagreement on the form. Once determined, the presence of a specific learning disability is reassessed at subsequent re-evaluation meetings. State Requirements Federal Requirements 34 CFR 300.8(c)(10); 300.311 Memorandum on Specific Learning Disability-Eligibility Process/Forms See also (See
