Sample Letter Requesting a Special Education Evaluation    
This letter should be used to ask the school to test your child for special education. Be sure to keep a copy for your records.




,

Dear :

Because my child, , is experiencing difficulties in school I am requesting an immediate special educational evaluation to determine whether there is the presence of a disability and/or impairing condition.

I expect this evaluation to be completed within the mandatory 30 school days and that the Multidisciplinary Evaluation Team (MET) and Individualized Educational Planning Team (IEPT) meeting be held within that time to determine the nature of the disability, so that an appropriate program and necessary service might be developed.

Thank you for your assistance,
