Notes for special education transfers

When a special education student transfers to the Stroudsburg Area School District from another Pennsylvania school district, our district will maintain the IEP from the previous Pennsylvania school district pending preparation and implementation of a new IEP.

When a special education student transfers to the Stroudsburg Area School District from another state, our district will review the student's IEP and any other relevant information as soon as possible and will convene a meeting with the parents to discuss the student's program.
