Guarantees timely educational evaluations and continuity of services for children entering foster care.

West Virginia HB5321 amends the Code of West Virginia to ensure that children entering foster care or transition homes receive timely educational evaluations and continuity of services. The bill mandates that the evaluation period for these children, for purposes of providing Individualized Education Program (IEP) or 504 services, be limited to a maximum of 30 days. This aims to ensure that these children receive necessary educational support without delay.
