Great discussions happened at our December Leadership Symposium among our building-level administrators! They dove deep into coaching instructional practices and how they can align and implement daily strategies to drive school improvement. Focusing on strategic goals, they're working to enhance student outcomes, ensuring every child has the tools they need to succeed. Strengthening our skills as educators is key to boosting student success, and we're committed to making this a year of growth and achievement! Let’s continue to inspire, innovate, and elevate our practices for the benefit of every student. Looking forward to our next meeting in January! #yourBESTsolution #ServicebeginswithSE #SEARKserves #kidsfirstalways

SE Special Education and Related Services: Establishing Connections through Collaborative Goal Writing January 22, 2025 at Southeast Arkansas Education Cooperative Collaboration is an evidence-based and High Leverage Practice (McLeskey et al., 2019) and essential to ensuring student’s needs are met. As part of developing an IEP, team members must determine the student’s critical needs and develop goals based on those identified needs. Writing goals collaboratively, is a way IEP teams can leverage their collective expertise and value of related services to support a student’s needs in the school setting (Arner et al., 2022). In this session, we will explore collaborative goal writing, progress monitoring strategies, and apply concepts to anchor learning. Objectives: -Understand the benefits of wrap around services to collaboratively meet the needs of students. -Identify parts of a goal -Apply collaborative goal writing practices to co-construct a goal -Participants will need to bring a device with internet access and a redacted (all identifying information completely removed) IEP for personal reflection (not sharing).
