Board hears special education performance data; trustees ask for concrete intervention plans
Summary
Special education data showed students served in special education are below K–3 targets and the program is at RDA determination level 2; trustees requested targeted intervention plans and clarity on action steps.
The board received a special education update that highlighted program types and current performance gaps.
Mr. Koenig (speaker S12) reviewed placements (inclusion, resource, skill, TLC) and presented MAP score comparisons that showed students served in special education were below district targets for K–3. He also noted that Results Driven Accountability places special education services at determination level 2 and that, for some small subsets, raw data could not be shown publicly to avoid student identification. Trustee questions focused on what targeted interventions and monitoring the district will implement to raise percent meeting the 60th percentile on NWEA MAP.
Koenig acknowledged the gap and said the presentation format mirrored other program reporting; trustees pressed staff to return with specific action steps and measurable targets for the special education population.
