I requested my child’s records. I was given what I know is only a fraction of what exists, even though the list I sent of what types of records I wanted was pretty comprehensive. One of the things that wasn’t provided was service logs. I asked where they were, and the principal said that none of their providers keep service logs for any of the children in the school, not just my child. This is a title I school with a large percentage of kids having IEPS/receiving services/billing Medicaid.
It’s my understanding that providers have to keep track of services provided so there is a record of if/when a child receives the service minutes that are outlined in their IEP.
My child told me that one entire week they didn’t receive their reading/writing intervention minutes, because the time instead was spent 1:1 with the interventionist administering a school-wide assessment to them, not the reading/writing SDI. The interventionist says my child received all of their service minutes that week, but provided no data to back it up.
What can I do to address this? If they really don’t keep service logs, is this a complaint I should send somewhere? Do I ask again but with different words? Is there a specific piece of statute/case law that addresses this?
