  9. DAPE Evaluations • Base the evaluation on the student’s needs • ex. ASD, EBD • Use a behavior checklist and observation • Don’t use Brockport if the need isn’t physical • Goals need to reflect the needs (behavior rather than physical)

  10. WHO WRITES THE GOAL? • The DAPE teacher needs to write the PLAFP, Goal, and Progress • IEP managers should not be writing information on DAPE page.

  15. Working Relationship cont. Lead Teacher cont. • Training among IEP managers on DAPE teacher’s role (w/ parents and staff) • Communication b/w DAPE teacher and parents is crucial • IEP manager has the ultimate responsibility for the flow of Due process* • DAPE teachers do not receive training (PWN, Significant change, etc.) *does not include DAPE PL, IEP goals, and progress

  16. Working Relationship cont. IEP Managers • Flexibility in grouping students for DAPE class • Safety concerns • Avoid DAPE being a prep for site based teachers • Grouping needs to be based on DAPE needs

  17. Please remember… It can be difficult to have multiple schools • Communication can be challenging • Unable to be at Child Study • Progress report deadlines are different at many schools • IEP managers write in DAPE goals • This needs to be done by the DAPE teacher • Occasionally forgotten on meeting notices
