SUMMARY:Drop In Family Support Time
DESCRIPTION:This hour is open for any family member to drop in for all or some of the time to share any concerns or get feedback from others about handling different situations. We ask anyone who stops by to respect the confidentiality of the group and not share anything discussed in the group outside of the group. \nDoes your school ever call and ask you to come pick up your child who has an IEP because your child is upset? \nHas the school told you to take your child for an evaluation and not bring them back to school until you get an evaluation? \nDo you ever wonder if your child needs an IEP? Does your child have an IEP and you wonder whether or not it is working? \nIf you said yes to any of these questions\, or you have other questions about things going on in your child’s school\, then come join us. \nRegister here >>

SUMMARY:OSEP Discipline & Behavior Guidance Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Office of Special Education Programs \nPlease join OSEP staff on November 3rd at 2pm (CDT) for a presentation and discussion regarding the Department’s recently released\, Guidance to Help Schools Support Students with Disabilities and Avoid Disparities In the Use of Discipline. A general overview of the guidance package will be presented and key topics will be discussed\, including informal removals and longstanding practices that have resulted in high rates of exclusionary discipline for children with disabilities\, particularly children with disabilities of color. Additionally\, technical assistance resources will be shared to support OSEP’s goal of shifting from an overreliance on exclusionary discipline to one of prevention and proactive attention to address the behavioral needs of children with disabilities. Time will be reserved for discussion and questions. \nOSEP will highlight three documents within the guidance package: \nDear Colleague Letter on Implementation of IDEA Discipline Provisions by OSEP Director Valerie C. Williams \nQuestions and Answers Addressing the Needs of Children with Disabilities and IDEA’s Discipline Provisions \nPositive Proactive Approaches to Supporting Children with Disabilities: A Guide for Stakeholders \nRegister here >>
