A new session has been added to the professional development lineup for the WOEA Fall Forum on November 18.
Special Education: Educator Rights, Responsibilities, and Responses presented by Daria DeNoia, M.Ed.
OEA Education Policy and Practice Consultant
IIRP Certified Practitioner

All educators encounter challenging students, and when students with special needs exhibit challenging behaviors, educators are responsible for following laws and rules to remain compliant with IDEA. During this session we will discuss how the FBA, BIP, and IEP protect the rights of educators and students; consider how to restructure a classroom (or school) to better address challenging behaviors across the school setting; discuss the rights and responsibilities related to restraint and seclusion of students; and reflect on how educators and their Union can advocate for strong and effective strategies and policies that improve safety for the entire school community.

Don't forget to sign up to attend this free event hosted every fall. https://form.jotform.com/262874995998186
