Independent Educational Evaluation
Nebraska ensures that a free, appropriate public education is available to all children with disabilities from birth through age 21.
- Parents or caregivers of a child with a disability have the right to obtain an independent educational evaluation of the child at public expense.
- Independent educational evaluations are often referred to by their acronym, IEE.
- A written document that outlines a student's educational needs and goals, resulting from the evaluation is called an individualized education plan or program, or IEP.
- A referral from your school’s special education director, special education teacher, superintendent or principal will authorize the evaluation by a state-approved provider.
