IDEA Determinations
Each year the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) uses Annual Performance Report and other data to make “determinations” about how states are meeting the requirements of the IDEA. To learn more about the process visit the US Dept of Education Results Based Accountability website and this page specifically about determinations.
Individual state letters by year (Part C and Part B) are available here: https://sites.ed.gov/idea/spp-apr-letters

Just like the Office of Special Education Programs at the US Dept. of Education, each state makes determinations about how local programs are meeting the requirements of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). These annual “determinations” are required by Section 616 of the IDEA and are based on a variety of data.
