Child Study Team

Each campus shall have an operational Child Study Team led by an administrator. The purpose of the Child Study Team shall be to review student performance issues and provide and monitor interventions for a student experiencing attendance, academic, and/or behavior challenges not effectively addressed with Tier 1 and Tier 2 supports. 

The Child Study Team shall provide a student support plan to be used prior to referral for additional assessment to determine eligibility for services, such as special education. The Child Study Team shall develop student intervention plans, monitor intervention effectiveness, and document student progress through the eCST tool. 

The Child Study Team shall establish meeting dates and times at the beginning of each school year and shall meet at least every two weeks. The Child Study Team will follow the process designed to identify steps taken by campus personnel to ensure students receive appropriate interventions at Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3. The interventions shall address academic, attendance, and/or behavior concerns within a general education setting prior to considering referrals for special education services.
