How long a Washington school district has — to answer your request, to finish the evaluation, and to meet — with the law cited for every number.
The district must respond to a written request within 25 school days ().
After you sign consent, the evaluation must be finished within 35 school days (WAC 392-172A-03005/-03015 (35 school days from consent); WAC 392-172A-020110 (district decides whether to evaluate within 25 school days of request)).
Recording a meeting: all-party (RCW 9.73.030).
If the school misses: state complaint — allege a violation from the last 1 year (34 CFR §300.153(c)); due process — 2 years from when you knew or should have known (34 CFR §300.507(a)(2)).
