RE:                 Special Education Staff Allocations

 

 

Principals should have received faxes on Friday, April 18th indicating the FTEs of special education teachers, EAs and TAs for 2008-2009.  The Special Education Department will be following up individually with principals over the next two weeks in schools that are receiving increases or decreases in special education staffing to share the criteria used and to help plan for fall.

 

Cecelia Dodge will be out of town much of the weeks of May 5th and 12th.  Please do not hesitate to contact your Executive Director or Mary Kelly via email:  mary.kelly@spps.org or call 767-8331 if you have questions in the mean time.  The restructuring of special education, starting July 1, 2008, will allow for improved communication and better service to schools.

 

Thank you.
