These include students who are severely disabled and home-bound students. They will also provide OT/PT therapist on an as needed basis to our extended school year program. (This resolution is responsive to Part 200 requirements to provide a free and appropriate public education (FAPE) to all students. If the nature or severity of the student’s disability is such that it precludes them from attending an in-district program, then a program must then be provided to the homebound student. ASSESSMENT PROCESS: Informal communication is ongoing between parents, provider and other school personnel. This communication is in the form of written letters and consults with teachers. Formal communication is via end-of-the-year summaries, monthly progress and statistical reports. Assessment of progress will be done at CSE and Annual Review Meetings.
