To Whom It May Concern:

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) requires the school system to provide information to private school administrators regarding the provision of equitable special education services to parentally-placed private school students with disabilities. Home-schooled children with disabilities are considered in the same category and are also eligible for services under this provision. Parentally-placed students with disabilities in private schools or home-schooled students are not entitled to a free appropriate public education (FAPE), but the district will provide services based on a proportionate share of federal funds.

To plan accordingly for the 2026-2027 school year, Lumpkin County Schools would like to meet with representatives of private schools or home schools located in Lumpkin County on June 9, 2026, at 9:00 am and again on June 10, 2026, at 4:00 pm at the Lumpkin County Board of Education, 56 Indian Drive, Dahlonega, Ga. 30533.

The following topics will be discussed at the meeting:

Child Find Process
The determination of the proportionate share of Federal Funds available to serve parentally placed private school children with disabilities
How the consultation process among the LEA and parentally placed private school children will take place
How, where, and by whom special education and related services will be provided

If you are unable to attend, you may call the Special Education Office at 706-864-3611, and we will be happy to discuss the process with you and answer your questions.
