Our Service Providers play a valuable role in support of our students and campuses. They wear many hats as they may also serve as Assessment staff. Some Service Providers also facilitate initial ARD meetings and serve as case managers. Service Providers work with campuses to manage schedules of service, work directly with students, monitor student progress, and collaborate with teachers to support students in both the general education and special education settings. Service Provider responsibilities include the following:
Collaborate with campus administrators and teachers to develop service schedules and coordinate services and implementation of accommodations.
Attend staffing meetings and ARD meetings for students served.
Prepare appropriate ARD documents prior to ARD. Document communication with parents related to ARD documents. Contribute to PLAAFP and other necessary supplements and sections of the ARD as a case manager and/or service provider.
Complete and archive goals from previous ARD prior to creating new goals for the upcoming annual ARD meeting.
Send draft goals to parents/guardians for review no later than 2 days before the ARD meeting date.
Complete progress notes at grading period intervals. Send progress notes to parents no later than 2 days after report cards are sent home.
Communicate with the ARD Facilitator if an ARD, Revision ARD, or amendment is needed.
Maintain attendance records and data for progress monitoring.
Provide services to students as outlined in the ARD document.
