The SST Process Rationale, Procedures and Paperwork Forms Procedures Objectives

District Rationale In 2011, CNUSD was found disproportionate in the number of Hispanic students identified for special education under the eligibility of Specific Learning Disability. The district also entered its first year Of Program Improvement. These two findings led to the development of the new Student Success Team(SST) procedures and forms. Barton held apprx. 87 SST Follow ups leading to assessment for 32 students. Of those, fewer than 50% qualified and further interventions were not pursued.

SST 2 – Previous SST’s are on File/Interventions are not Successful. Meet with Grade/Subject Level Teams and Parents This is a great time to collaborate with your team for additional interventions. Addition interventions can be generated when meeting with parents. Additional information from parents can be derived by using the Parent Interview Two forms. Schedule a parent conference within 2-3 weeks to discuss outcomes. At this point, you have attempted approximately 6 interventions over two 2-3 week periods in order to redirect the student towards success. If interventions are successful and there are no further concerns, file a copy of the paperwork in the CUM and continue all interventions. If interventions are not successful, request an Office Level SST meeting be scheduled by completing the Referral to SST team forms.

SST and Teacher Collaboration Protocol Can Teacher Collaboration Time(PTT) be utilized for discussing individual students? Grade level and Academic Teams are encouraged to plan PTT time to discuss concerns with individual students. The referring teacher will present the concerns (academic, and or social) to the team, and mention any strategies or resources that have been used to address the concerns. The team is encouraged to consider and suggest any additional methods, and or resources that can be implemented by the teacher. Teacher will follow-up with the team to briefly discuss student’s status. If progress is not evident, then the team will suggest a SST referral.

SST Office-Level Team Meeting Request 1. Fill out page 1 of the Referral to SST Form and the Testing History Form(or attach Data Director Printout). Copies of all data are to be included in the referral. Include the names of all personnel you would like to have in attendance. This can be done on a site-created form. 2. Give a copy of all completed forms to your SST Chairperson for review and scheduling. 3. Continue all interventions until the meeting takes place. If additional interventions are started, please add them to your SST Forms to present at the office level meeting 4. Step 6 of the Referral to SST form will be completed at the meeting. attendance(it is your option as a school-site to do this on another form – because you don’t have nearly enough at this point)

Components of a goal or objective: Who Does what How much accuracy Measured how

Example of measurable objects When given double digit addition and subtraction, Kelly will be able to compute the answer with 85% accuracy as measured by teacher created tests. When given first grade material, Kelly will be able to read a passage orally at 50-80 wpm with no more than 5 errors as measured by fluency test

Examples of non-measurable goals Kelly will work towards 2nd grade math standards Kelly will improve her reading fluency

Used by the SST Chair to document overall meetings held.
