If it has been determined by the student's IEP Team or Section 504 Committee that the student qualifies as a student with a disability under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act (Section 504), either an IEP or a Section 504 Plan will be developed for the student. While the receiving district remains the local educational agency (LEA) and is responsible for providing all direct services, they will upload a copy of the plan by the first day of the course, and Katy ISD teachers shall review the IEPs and Section 504 Plans in order to implement the appropriate portions of the document in the online setting.
