sixty days, every domain
Drawn for this page. The organizer counts the days from consent and keeps every domain of the evaluation in view until it is done.

How to use it

  1. Start a record with a code or initials; set the as-of date to today.
  2. Enter the date consent was received, the days allowed and how they are counted.
  3. Mark each domain related to the suspected disability, and say why any are not needed.
  4. List each assessment with its evaluator, date and status.
  5. Open the record each week, change the as-of date and work the flags.

The rules it follows, in general terms

The federal timeline

An initial evaluation must be completed within 60 days of receiving the parent’s consent, or within the timeframe the state sets. Many states set their own and some count school days; this organizer takes either.

Every domain

The student is assessed in all domains related to the suspected disability, including, where appropriate, health, vision, hearing, social and emotional status, general intelligence, academic performance, communication and motor abilities.

What it is not

A tracking record, not legal advice. It does not apply state rules or decide eligibility. Check your state’s regulations and district procedures for the exact timeline.
