What Are We Doing in Unit #5: What Can I do at Home
Elementary: Toni Eckley, RtI interventionist
Middle School: Rexie Lanier, RtI Coach
High School: Mary Walker, RtI Coach
We want to provide information on our current reading practices and approach within the district at each level. The presenters have been receiving training and supporting teachers through the year. They will explain our reading direction and give parents ideas on how they can support their children/young people at home.
Student Led IEP’s: 7 - 8 PM
Transition Planning and student involvement: Carrie Chapman, Secondary Specialist
We have been working to assure that we meet the needs of students with IEP’s in high school as they leave school and enter the adult world. Carrie will give an overview of our approach for this and talk about how we work with students to prepare them for this process. She will answer questions and give parent information on how they can help in this process.
