What does Indicator #13 say?

“Percent of youth with IEPs aged 16 and above with an IEP
that includes appropriate measurable postsecondary goals
that are annually updated and based upon an age
appropriate transition assessment, transition services,
including courses of study, that will reasonably enable the
student to meet those postsecondary goals, and annual
IEP goals related to the student’s transition services needs.
There also must be evidence that the student was invited
to the IEP Team meeting where transition services are to
be discussed and evidence that, if appropriate, a
representative of any participating agency was invited to
the IEP Team meeting with the prior consent of the parent
or student who has reached the age of majority.”

How will you determine the number of
files to review?

Here are some examples


If the school division’s special education population, 16
years and older is 400, then select 20% of the records
for 400 students.
 20% of 400 or .20 X 400 = 80
REVIEW 80 Records
There are 1250 students in the school division ages 16
and older who have IEPs so select 20% of the records for
1250 students.
 20% of 1250 or .20 X 1250 = 250
