Editor's Notes

  • #5 Special Education Department includes coordinators, behavior specialists, curriculum specialists, administrative supervisors, etc. General education support systems includes social emotional learning, Response to Intervention Team and others
  • #6 Handout of Spectrum of Services for Social, Emotional or Behavioral Supports Talking points: student can access any level of support needed based on least restrictive environment required to make progress on student goals, add IDEA law, the greater the number the greater the need for specialized support.
  • #7 Looking at the whole child with a focus on academic achievement and access to general education curriculum, including access to peers without disabilities. Campuses design support for students based on strengths and needs of individual students, identified through assessment. Incorporate information from Life Skills program and SBS program with examples/scenarios. Incorporate information regarding inclusion for the secondary piece. What do you think belongs in the center of all of the circles? Academics.
  • #9 Add option for electronic responses.
