Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) Support
At Karaton Educational Consulting and Coaching, we understand the critical significance of Individual Educational Plans (IEPs) as more than just documents; they are legal blueprints that define a student's unique learning journey. An IEP encapsulates the student's identity, learning style, needs, and a roadmap for accessing the general education curriculum. Our dedicated IEP Support program empowers educators, special education building/district staff, and stakeholders to master the art of crafting comprehensive IEPs that align with Part 200 compliance, while ensuring the student remains at the heart of every discussion.
Section 504 Support
We demystify the unique attributes of Section 504, clarifying its purpose and scope within the broader educational landscape. Our program ensures you grasp the significance of providing reasonable accommodations to ensure equal access for students with disabilities. Addressing the common confusion, our training clearly differentiates Section 504 from the IEP/CSE process. We equip you with the knowledge to identify which students are eligible for a 504 plan and guide you through the essential steps of its development and implementation.
Co-Teaching Support
Co-teaching isn't just a technique; it's a skill that demands knowledge and strategy. Our program takes you beyond the basics, providing a deep understanding of co-teaching's purpose and mechanics. When executed seamlessly, co-teaching becomes a harmonious dance that involves all participants – educators, students, and support staff – working together in perfect synergy.
Team Development
Ever find yourself loving your job but struggling to connect with your colleagues? You're not alone – this common challenge might be quietly eroding your workplace culture. While individual performance is crucial, a cohesive team working toward shared objectives shines brighter than a group of isolated individuals. Our innovative approach is dedicated to bolstering team strength by unraveling the intricacies of team dynamics.
