Amended IEP - Goals Section
When the IEP is amended, blue guidance statements appear to inform the user to mark the goal or objective(s) as mastered or discontinued if applicable.
Under the Goal, two checkboxes will be displayed, Goal Mastered and Goal Discontinued. The checkboxes are optional. Select the checkbox if it is applicable. When the Goal is mastered or discontinued, the user shall not add additional objectives. In addition, the user shall enter the date the goal was mastered or discontinued in the required date field.
For above any objective that was added to the IEP in a previous version (prior to the amendment):
-
two checkboxes will be displayed, Objective Mastered and Objective Discontinued. The checkboxes are optional. Select the checkbox if it is applicable.
-
the objective cannot be deleted (the X icon is removed) as the previously entered objective can only be marked as mastered or discontinued.
