(d) Conducting a screening of a student by a teacher or specialist to determine appropriate instructional strategies for curriculum implementation.
(2) Consent for initial evaluation for wards of the state: If a child is a ward of the state and is not residing with the child's parent, the public agency is not required to obtain informed written consent from the parent for an initial evaluation to determine whether the child is a child with a disability if:

(b)The rights of the parents of the child have been terminated in accordance with state law; or
(c) The rights of the parent to make educational decisions have been subrogated by a judge in accordance with state law and consent for an initial evaluation has been given by an individual appointed by the judge to represent the child.
(3) If, after reasonable efforts to obtain parent consent, the parent does not respond, the school district may conduct a reevaluation without consent, unless the reevaluation is an individual intelligence test or test of personality.

(4) Written consent is not required if an administrative law judge determines under OAR 581-015-2375 that the evaluation or reevaluation is necessary to ensure that the child is provided with a free appropriate public education.
