why taping is necessary. The Director may waive the requirement
that the request be in writing under certain circumstances,
including situations where the parent has difficulty understanding

and review the circumstances surrounding the request, and
determine whether an exception to this policy is allowable.

the video recording becomes part of the student's educational
record.
