The transition process will include a review of academic and behavioral records including, but not limited to, individual academic improvement plans, individual graduation plans, or individualized education plans (IEP), as applicable, in order to ensure that appropriate academic supports and opportunities remain available to the student.

checklist of all records produced by a referring school and a fixed timeframe

school or program.

a. address
appropriate behavior interventions and specific goals for behavioral
progress;

a traditional school setting.
