Student ID Number_____________________________________________________
The Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance summarize the results of assessments that identify
the student’s interests, preferences, strengths and areas of need, including assistive technology and/or accessible materials. It
also describes the effect of the student’s disability on his or her involvement and progress in the general education curriculum,
and for preschool children, as appropriate, how the disability affects the student’s participation in appropriate activities. This
includes the student’s performance and achievement in academic areas such as writing, reading, mathematics, science, and
history/social sciences. It also includes the student’s performance in functional areas, such as self-determination, social
competence, communication, behavior and personal management. Test scores, if included, should be self-explanatory or an
explanation should be included, and the Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance should be
written in objective measurable terms, to the extent possible. There should be a direct relationship among the desired goals,
the Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance, and all other components of the IEP.

Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)
When discussing the least restrictive environment and placement options, the following must be considered:
To the maximum extent appropriate, the student is educated with children without disabilities.
Special classes, separate schooling or other removal of the student from the regular educational environment occurs only
when the nature or severity of the disability is such that education in regular classes with the use of supplementary aids
and services cannot be achieved satisfactorily.
The student’s placement should be as close as possible to the child’s home and unless the IEP of the student with a
disability requires some other arrangement, the student is educated in the school that he or she would attend if he or she
did not have a disability.
In selecting the LRE, consideration is given to any potential harmful effect on the student or on the quality of services that
he/she needs.
The student with a disability shall be served in a program with age-appropriate peers unless it can be shown that for a
particular student with a disability, the alternative placement is appropriate as documented by the IEP.
Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE)
When discussing FAPE for this student, it is important for the IEP team to remember that FAPE may include, as appropriate:
Educational Programs and Services
Proper Functioning of Hearing Aids
Assistive Technology and/or accessible
materials
Transportation
Nonacademic and Extracurricular Services and
Activities

needs of each student. The team may consider placement options in conjunction with discussing any needed supplementary
aids and services, accommodations/modifications, assistive technology and/or accessible materials, and supports for school
personnel. In considering the placement continuum options, check those the team discussed. Then, describe the placement
selected in the PLACEMENT DECISION section below. Determination of the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) and
placement may be one or a combination of options along the continuum.
