The written notice a school district is required to provide to a parent prior to a proposal or refusal to initiate or change the identification, evaluation, or educational placement of, or the provision of FAPE to, a child shall conform to the requirements of 34 CFR 300.503. "Reasonable time", for purposes of 34 CFR 300.503(a), is defined as ten days. A parent may waive the ten-day notice period before placement, allowing the district to place the child in the recommended program as soon as practicable.
