Major Change in the Use of the DRDP Instruments for Preschool Special Education
Official Policy Change announced on August 12, 2009 by the California Department of Education, Special Education Division:
Beginning September 1, 2009 all new preschool-age children with IEPs will be assessed using only the DRDP access. This change does not affect preschool-age children with IEPs who were assessed prior to September 1, 2009; these children will continue to be assessed with the same instrument that was previously used, whether the DRDP access or the DRDP-R.
