The IDEA 04 and the Kentucky Administrative Regulations require that “for students who graduate or age out of the program, the LEA shall provide the child with a summary of the child’s academic achievement and functional performance including recommendations on how to assist the child in meeting the child’s postsecondary goals (707 KAR 1:300 Section 4 (21)).
In an effort to assist districts in meeting this requirement, two optional formats for documenting the “Summary of Performance” have been developed. The options are:
Option 1 – was developed just after the IDEA was reauthorized in 2004 and has been used by districts since that time.
KySOP Option 1.doc
Option 2 – is a recently developed format that is now available. This option outlines a more student-directed approach to the Summary of Performance. The format attached is the teacher’s copy with annotations on how to complete, as well as a blank student copy.

Option 3 – Your district may also develop its own way of documenting the Summary of Performance as long as the regulatory requirements are met.
