Avon Grove School District
Early Intervention to School Age
Pre- Transition Meeting- early January
 The Intermediate Unit (IU) will contact you to schedule a
transition meeting
 At the meeting, the IU will request the following completed
information:
o A completed Student Profile—including strengths, school the child is currently
attending, hours of current pre-school program
o A signed permission for release of records- this allows the district to access a current
IEP and ER.
- The IU does not provide us with additional records; however parents may
provide any additional information, relative to your child. This allows the
school District to gain a full understanding of your child prior to the meeting.
o In order for the district to review these records, prior the
meeting, the records release must be signed and received in
advance of the meeting.

educational programming and needs.

AGSD for the following school year.
o If your child is not of the Age of Beginner (6 years old prior to 9/8/2015) they have
the option to remain in Early Intervention (EI) for another year.
