IEP Guidebook (Rhode Island IEP Form) – Age 3-13

December 27, 2021 4:25 pm

This guidebook has been developed to provide districts and families with directions on how to complete the Rhode Island IEP form Age 3 thru 13.*

The state of Rhode Island is committed to providing educational opportunities for all students to achieve high standards. For students with disabilities, this means that the student must be provided with a free, appropriate, public education designed to meet his or her needs and to provide the student with access and opportunity to attain those high standards. Their education must also be provided in the least restrictive environment, which for most students is the regular classroom. The foundation of the program for the student with a disability is the Individualized Education Program (IEP) developed by the IEP team.
