School Case Study Joyce R. Brown Grand Canyon University: EDA-585 August 5, 2015 Introduction This assignment requires the collection of information on the school of choice. The school selected is viewed as a Professional Learning Community (PLC). The demographics, goals, mission, annual yearly progress (AYP), enrollment, staffing, and community background will be researched and detailed. Schools are basically a community within a community and in order for a principal to be effective in their school they have to view their school as a learning community where not only students are learning but faculty and staff grow and learn also. Red Springs Middle School was the school chosen for this assignment because it is a school that
Students are taught to develop their skills through specific techniques. They are encouraged to review and ask questions during tutoring sessions based on the teacher’s instruction. Students generate questions and draw conclusions through reciprocal peer interaction. The reinforcement they receive while working in groups motivates learning. These sessions create a classroom where student pairs can work on different levels and on different types of problems (i.e., word problems or counting) or at varying reading levels.
It’s basically a teaching/learning plan that is specifically tailored to a child's needs. It's normally planned by a group of teachers & specialists who are involved with the child. 5. What is the school/teachers role in generating and implementing an IEP? h. To create an effective IEP, parents, teachers, other school staff--and often the student--must come together to look closely at the student's unique needs.

Kathy Parker Grand Canyon University: SPE 351 February 1, 2013 The problems associated with assessing students with Intellectual Disability are that the student shows signs and or behaviors. In assessing students a teacher must first understand the disability and all that is contributed to it. Teachers must look at the students’ ability to learn as well as his or her ability to perform daily task such as having the ability to dress them, comb their hair, and interact with others in the same age group as they are. In looking at these factors the teacher looks at a variety of factors such as intelligence scores, questionnaires, and observations in different setting over a period of time. Once this is completed then the teacher is able to assess the student and provide the support that they will need to function in the educational surroundings.
