- Capable of running domain meetings and contributing to multidisciplinary teams
- Strong communication and organizational abilities
- Ability to oversee EI transition processes, including TPBA (17 cases managed last year)
- CPI training is not required, as this district role does not involve direct behavioral intervention
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and facilitate domain meetings
- Complete student evaluations as assigned
- Oversee Early Intervention transitions, including TPBA processes
- Participate in MTSS referral meetings for individual students as appropriate
- Collaborate within the district office, providing consultation and expertise as needed
