 * We will stay with set Department meetings and ask building departments to change their schedules.**
 * No later than the last day of school for students, paraprofessionals who are being released will be told the same in a face to face meeting. The meeting shall include a building administrator and where appropriate the Intervention Specialist. This termination will be followed by a thank you letter and best wishes in the future.**
 * Reduction in force - when a paraprofessional is let go because there is not a need for his/her services, that person will be considered for other open positions in the district.**
 * Evaluations: Need to be completed in January and May. May include the building administrator if needed, but if there are major issues, the IS should be communicating with that administrator early on. Evaluations should turned into Intervention Services office by the last teacher day of the school year. Maintain the same form.**
 * Interview obligations - only to those who left because of a RIF.**
 * Coordinators will vet applications in June and pass the list along with a short description to principals needing paraprofessionals. They will also establish their step on the salary scale.**
 * Debra and the coaches will be looking into the current math materials to determine their appropriateness for all students, but certainly students with disabilities. It is hoped that she will recommend alternatives to the IS Department.**
 * What sort of assessment data are we collecting to assess student progress as a result of placing the student in Saxon?**
 * Coordinators will get Missy information on who is receiving what math program.**
