Due Process Complaint Decisions

 

The West Virginia Department of Education, Office of Special Programs (OSP) administers the due process complaint system to resolve parent and district disputes regarding identification, evaluation, placement and/or provision of free appropriate public education for exceptional students. The hearing officer renders a decision that assures the provision of a free appropriate public education for exceptional students. A decision is final and binding unless either party appeals in any state court of competent jurisdiction or in a district court of the United States within 90 days from the date of the decision of the hearing officer. The OSP provides its hearing officers’ decisions to the public in a manner that preserves personal privacy by removing information that would identify the student.
