SpEd OSPI Data Collection
It has come to KEA’s attention that a communication from Inclusive Ed was sent out on Friday the 16th regarding the OSPI Community Complaint. In this email, Special Education teachers were asked to complete forms for each student on their caseload for the 21-22 school year by Friday of this week.
This is a change in working conditions not to mention a very tight turn around. Furthermore, the attestation page has a forced choice question that members may not feel comfortable responding to with either of the choices provided. As such, we will be working out how to get time and/or compensation to complete this work and addressing the attestation form.
In the meantime, we advise you track the time it takes to complete this work while we work on the details.
Mental Health Forum
Mental health is an important issue for our students and a top priority for our members. A forum for Kent educators, families and students interested in tackling mental health in our district will be held at KEA on Thursday, September 29th. The purpose of this meeting is to explore ideas to support students’ mental health, collaborate with stakeholders, and plan next steps.
We will be meeting at the KEA office, with a zoom option, at 6pm. If you are interested in attending, please click this link to RSVP.
