Data: School Improvement Mapping
The school improvement mapping seems like it would be a helpful tool for the SLPs in the district to use to sit down and talk about how we can improve our speech therapy sessions given the high caseloads that we have. It is so easy to focus on what the barriers are to providing quality instruction to our students, instead of focusing on what we can do (strategies/actions) to help our situation. Hopefully now that we have 1 Wednesday a month to meet (this just changed!), we can take time together to work through this dilemma, instead of working through it by ourselves in our separate buildings.

Yay! I'm so glad that you guys get to meet once a month! The high needs sped teachers have been meeting almost once a month since last year and it has been WONDERFUL! It's amazing how much more we get out of that meeting of 5 or 6 than the big group meeting that doesn't really pertain to us. We have also been able to bounce ideas off of each other and work on a progression of skills from my classroom (the lowest) to Roxy's post high school program (the highest) It really has been great.
