PLC Guest: Traci Piggott (The Disability Network)
You heard news from Pam regarding the ETS program that the Disability Network is engaging in with Genesee County this year. Traci will be joining us at our next PLC Meeting to give information about the ETS opportunity. Consider questions you may have for her on November 29, and we look forward to her visit. Traci will be joining us from 1 - 2:15.
PLC Guest: Barb O. - Session 2 START Coaches
PLC day will also hold an opportunity for START coaches to meet for a follow up with Barb O. This meeting will take place from 2:15 - 3:00. Please bring any materials you may need.
REED - District Rep required
Reminder - A district rep. is an integral participant to include on the front page of a REED. This is generally your building principal, and can be as simple as having a short conversation with your principal to alert them to your student, that you are conducting a re-eval, and the why/what of your REED. Your principal stays informed, can contribute any additional information, and will also sign the back page of your finalized REED as designee.
Medicaid
We bill for every direct service student each month. The combination of the case manager log + direct service provider log = release of logs for payment. Each must provide at minimum 1 log per month. Our standard is that 2 contacts per month are the minimum appropriate.
Thank you!
The golden checklist sheets are rolling in with your finalized IEP documents. Thank you for adding that 'one more step' to your process. It is my sincere hope that, as you are checking those items off, you find the document a useful assist in building individualized, error free plans! The extra effort is truly appreciated.
