Region 13's E-Campus

The focus of this two-day, face to face, session is developing a present levels of academic achievement and functional performance (PLAAFP) based on student data, drafting measurable annual goals (academic and/or functional) and short-term objectives/benchmarks, if appropriate, and collecting data for reporting progress.    Participants will understand the importance of these components and how their alignment results in an appropriate and ambitious Individualized Education Program (IEP) for students receiving special education and related services.    The intended audience for this training is special education teachers, related service providers, and any other professional staff responsible for drafting a student’s IEP, including the PLAAFP and measurable annual goals.    Please plan to bring (or have access to via an electronic device) an IEP of a student on your caseload. We will engage in an activity in which you will analyze your student's PLAAFP, annual goal(s), and data collection for progress monitoring.   This training was created by the Child Find, Evaluation, and ARD Support Statewide Technical Assistance Network in collaboration with the Texas Education Agency with state and federal grants.   Participants must attend both days to receive credit.
