Other Resources & Information
The Utah State Board of Education Special Education Rights of Parents and Children Procedural Safeguards states, "Each student’s records may be considered “no longer needed to provide educational services” and may be destroyed three years after the student graduates or three years after the student turns 22 under IDEA." Your students records will be retained for three years post graduation. At which time, the file will be permanently destroyed. The adult student may retrieve their IEP file, in it's entirety, prior to the end of the three year period following graduation, by contacting the school office
