TSI Status for Special Education Students and Multilingual Learners
TSI Information
This information was presented to the Silver Mesa teachers and staff. Silver Mesa has been identified by the State of Utah as one of the bottom 5% of schools in the state with the least amount of growth for the special ed population (2-3 years of declining progress for students with IEPs or
multilingual learners). Silver Mesa has 15% of the general ed population who meet this criteria. Typically a school’s special ed/multilingual population will be closer to 10%.
Faculty and staff at Silver Mesa will work together to address this issue by:
– starting with each teacher receiving another copy of each IEP and meet with resource teacher to ENSURE we are meeting all classroom accommodations as outlined in the IEPs
– ensuring and *normalizing* that every student with IEP receive accommodations; for example, testing in the resource room, not in the gen ed classroom
