Small Group and Individual Problem Solving

Small Group and Individual Problem Solving
    • All schools have a team that discusses individual student needs. A student may be referred to the team by a teacher or parent or may be automatically referred using data that looks at academic performance, behavior (attendance, discipline, etc.), and social emotional needs.
    • This team identifies interventions that match the needs of the students. Interventions could be:
      • Things that can be done in the classroom
      • A small group that focuses on a specific need
      • Individual sessions that work on a skill
    • Interventions can be catered to the needs of the student by changing the frequency, duration, and/or intensity of the sessions.
    • If a student demonstrates progress and/or mastery of a skill, the intervention may be faded and/or discontinued.
    • If a student does not show adequate progress, a new intervention could be considered or a change to the current intervention could be implemented.
    • If a student does not show progress after multiple interventions have been attempted, a referral for additional evaluations will be considered.
