Welcome Back to School! 

Dear Students, Parents, and Caregivers, 

Welcome back to Roy C. Ketcham HS for the 2024-2025 school year! 

Here is some important information regarding speech and language services for RCK: 

• Related services will continue to run on the 3:1 Service Delivery Model. The first week of school will be an indirect cycle, followed by 3 weeks of direct therapy, beginning Friday, September 13, 2024. 

  • This consists of 3 cycles of direct speech therapy, as per your child's IEP, followed by 1 cycle of indirect therapy, used as needed per student for that cycle.

  • Students will not be directly seen by me during the indirect cycle with the exception of make-up sessions, observations, and evaluations.

  • Please do no be worried if your child is not directly seen during the indirect cycles. 

• Related services (Speech, PT, OT) are provided as yearly services.

• IEP Progress Reports will be sent quarterly, along with report cards. 

Please note, the best way to reach me is through email. My email is: gabrielle.branciforti@wcsdny.org. You can also leave me a voicemail, and I will get back to you as soon as I can. 

I am looking forward to getting to know you, and working with your child this school year! Go Storm!

Sincerely, 

Gabrielle Branciforti
