Description

The Office of the State Superintendent of Education's Division of Teaching and Learning is pleased to offer a professional development series focused on building capacity and developing high-quality individual education programs (IEPs).

On March 22, 2017 the US Supreme Court issued a unanimous opinion in Endrew F. v. Douglas County School District. In that case, the Court redefined the free appropriate public education (FAPE) requirements in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). This training series will provide an overview of the decision and provide LEAs with support to develop capacity among their special education staff to meet the more rigorous standard for IEP quality set forth by Endrew F.

In Part 4 of the series, Using Data to Propose Appropriate Service Hours and Setting, participants will:

  • Identify legal requirements pertaining to special education service hours and settings
  • Understand what does (and does not) constitute inclusion of students with disabilities
  • Idenitfy effective ways to foster effective practices of inclusion at the building and classroom level
  • Practice using data to propose appropriate, individualized service hours and setting

Space is limited and registration is required. Please note that the series will be offered again as a summer intensive.
