How we configure South Carolina

South Carolina follows the federal timeline: the initial evaluation must be conducted within 60 calendar days of receiving parental consent for evaluation. (34 CFR § 300.301(c)(1); S.C. Code Ann. Regs. 43-243).
Initial IEP meeting
A meeting to develop the IEP must be held within 30 calendar days of the eligibility determination. (34 CFR § 300.323(c)(1)).
Goal alignment
SMART goals aligned to South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Standards, plus functional and adaptive domains.

TPA Ventures drafts; your team decides. Every goal, accommodation and notice is reviewed and finalized by certified staff and parents. TPA Ventures does not make eligibility or placement determinations and does not replace the IEP team required by 34 CFR § 300.321.
Cut IEP drafting time by 60% while strengthening legal defensibility.
