The Special Education Coordinator oversees and facilitates the inclusion program at St. Francis of Assisi School, reporting to the principal and providing data-based evidence outcomes. This person prioritizes their time by focusing with teachers, paras, other specialty staff, and parents on the support and intervention of students receiving intensive level supports (Tier 3), with targeted response groups (Tier 2) receiving secondary focus. Intensive focus can be due to a diagnosed need, a suspected need that is being considered for diagnostic measures, or a temporary traumatic or crisis situation involving the student. Some of the action items listed below are redundant but may provide a different context in regard to when or how they are conducted. Some may only occur at the beginning or end of the year, while others are ongoing.
