Information Item: Special Education Task Force Talking Points
Date: February 6, 2013
Talking Points:
1. The Special Education Task Force met for the sixth time on February 6, 2013.
2. The ultimate instructional program delivery model should include some flexibility at the site
level while creating coherence across the district that provides for the full continuum of
services for all of our students.
3. The ultimate model of instructional program delivery should work in concert with the
collaboration and professional development already in place in the district.
4. Maximizing integration of students with special needs into general education environments will
have the best opportunity to develop collaboration between general education teachers
and special education teachers. The implementation of the VUSD RtI Guide will promote
collaboration.
5. Keeping parents informed about the benefits of a new instructional program delivery model
for special education will ensure a successful implementation.
6. The next Special Education Task Force meeting will take place on February 27, 2013.
