NEW Related Operational Action <strong>Plan</strong> I.D: Redesign of Student Transition Instruction and Practices<br />
1. The Special Education Task Force will meet to<br />
outline the parameters of the project.<br />

best practices in <strong>BOCES</strong>, in the region and<br />
statewide. Review and incorporate<br />
facets/opportunities presented by the recent grant<br />
award to Riverhead, Western and Nassau.<br />
3. Discuss and clearly outline key points along the<br />
continuum, and “exit points” (e.g. moving from<br />
elementary to middle school) for students that should<br />
be targets for long term planning efforts of all schools<br />
along the continuum.<br />
4. Develop a comprehensive, multi-year plan that will<br />
address issues identified through the research<br />
process such as:<br />
- An annual skill assessment/exploration that will<br />
address student strengths and interests K-12.<br />
- A continuum of instructional and behavioral skills to<br />
be addressed and integrated into state mandated<br />
curricula.<br />
- A Parent Curriculum to involve them in authentic<br />
assessment and meaningful long term planning for<br />
their child.<br />
- A staff development plan to address staff’s role in<br />
preparing student for “transition”. Special focus will<br />
be on the integration of all service providers in the<br />
planning an implementation of goals and strategies.<br />
5. Communicate the proposed plan to staff<br />
throughout the department to disseminate<br />
information and gather feedback and input from staff<br />
