What Will On-site Monitoring Look LIke in SDOC?

According to training provided by South Carolina's Office of Exceptional Children, the school district of Oconee County can expect a team of about 8 members to visit our district on December 4th and 5th.  On December 4th, all on-site monitoring team members will work from the district office. Following a 30-minute LEA district presentation in the morning, two members of the on-site monitoring team will conduct focus group interviews with school site administrators, special education teachers and parents of the students randomly selected for review.  The group interviews will last about an hour. The remaining team members will conduct psychological folder reviews. 
On December 5th,  the on-site monitors will break up into three teams and will arrive at schools around 8:30 a.m.   From 9:00-11:15, they will conduct IEP implementation reviews at two elementary and one middle school.  From 12:30-2:45, they will conduct IEP implementation reviews at one middle and two high schools. They will debrief from 3:15-4:00 then will meet with the Director of Special Services for a concluding conference.
