What Exactly is ESY?
Regulations to the Individuals With Disabilities in Education Improvement Act (IDEA) defines ESY as “special education and related services that are provided to a child with a disability beyond the normal school year in accordance with the child’s Individualized Educational Plan (IEP), and at no cost to the parents[.]” 34 CFR 300.309(b). In New Jersey, a student is entitled to ESY if the IEP Team determines that:
an interruption in educational programming causes the student’s performance to revert to a lower level of functioning, and
Recoupment cannot be expected in a reasonable length of time. N.J.A.C. 6A:14-4.4(c).
Basically, ESY is a maintenance program to help students maintain their current skill set.
