Special Services

Student Success Team (SST)

The SST is an interdisciplinary group of professionals who join with your child’s team to help design interventions for students who struggle academically and/or behaviorally. If problems persist after you team has worked with you and your child to provide interventions, the SST can be convened.

This is also the group that oversees other types of formal intervention plans, such as the DoDEA Accommodation Plan and “504s.” If your child has a documented condition, such as ADHD or other health issues, and needs changes made in his or her educational program to “level the playing field,” an Accommodation Plan can be written. Please contact your child’s Prime Time teacher to request a meeting.

Child Find Program

Sometimes, it becomes apparent that a student has difficulties that may be indicative of a disability. Teachers, parents, and even the students themselves, may refer for evaluation for special educational services. Students do not have to go through the SST process to be referred.

Please contact our school psychologist, if you suspect that a learning, communication, or emotional disability may be causing difficulty in any of
the following areas:

  • Following teacher directions
  • Difficulty with academics, including reading, writing, or math
  • Speaking or listening, seeing or hearing
  • Getting along with others
  • Learning new tasks
  • Expressing his/her ideas
  • Managing his/her feelings or temper
  • Chronic depression

Special Education

If your child is found eligible for special educational services, an Individual Educational Plan (IEP) will be written. This document contains goals, as well as modifications and accommodations that must decisions are made by the Case Study Committee (CSC) – and parents are a vital part of the process. Since special education meetings are arranged with regard to federal guidelines, strict timelines, and the schedules of many, please make attendance a
priority. If unforeseen circumstances arise that prevent your attendance, notify your child’s case manager as soon as possible.
