Access The principal must ensure that all teachers and related service providers providing services to the student have access to SESIS. If the staff member has not received training in how to access an IEP in SESIS, the principal must ensure that training is provided. The determination of which teachers must be provided the IEP should be made at the IEP meeting for each student. The distribution process must be completed and repeated throughout the year at any time a new IEP is developed or amended. This process must also be followed for newly attending students.
Confidentiality As always, student IEPs remain confidential in accordance with the following parameters: IEPs are not disclosed to any other person(s) consistent with the school district’s policy for ensuring confidentiality of student records. IEPs must be kept in a secure locked location, including those copies in the possession of teachers and providers. All persons who receive copies of IEPs or have access to IEPs must be instructed regarding their legal obligation to maintain the confidentiality of student records. Teachers and related service providers who receive a copy of a student’s IEP shall not disclose personally identifiable information from the IEP without consent of the parent.
