What to check

Read the plan for these specific details

What education record the school uses to verify service delivery if no separate log is maintained.

Confirm schedules, provider notes, attendance systems, progress reports, Medicaid records, or service grids answer the delivery question.

Look for records showing the requested record is tied to a specific service and timeframe.

Sample checker finding

No separate log, but delivery still needs a verification record

What the record shows

The school says speech logs are not kept, but the IEP lists minutes and the progress report does not show dates, provider, group size, or missed sessions.

What to ask for

Ask what education record verifies the service delivery for that service and date range.

A written request you can use

Send one specific question

“If separate service logs are not maintained, please identify the education record the school uses to verify delivery of the IEP service, including dates, minutes, provider role, setting, missed sessions, and make-ups for the requested date range.”

Document based IEP review

Check the pages you already have

The review reads the pages you upload, points to the wording behind each concern, and helps you prepare questions. It does not send anything to your school or decide a legal claim.

Common questions

What does when the school says no service logs exist check?

It checks if the service-verification record when logs are unavailable is specific, data-backed, and connected to the IEP sections that should guide services, supports, progress, or school decisions.

What should I look at first?

Start with the current IEP page tied to the concern, then compare it with the most recent evaluation, progress report, service log, school notice, or email that explains what happened.

What should I ask the school if something is missing?

Put the request in writing for the specific missing data, page, service detail, or written decision. Keep the request narrow so the school can answer it clearly.
