I&RS (Intervention and Referral Sevices) Home page
The Intervention and Referral Service (I&RS) is a way in which educators collaborate to seek the best student learning style and teacher practices. Its focus is to align students’ learning with available resources in their classroom environment.
The I&RS Team Collaboratively:
- Involves parents/guardians in the development and implementation of the Individual Student Improvement Plan (ISIP)
- Identifies students in need and then plans and provides interventions for those students within their classroom through Student Improvement Plan (ISIP)
- Reviews and assesses the effectiveness of the services provided in the intervention of the ISIP
What happens at a meeting?
- Meetings are held as needed
- The I&RS Team meets with teachers, other staff, and parents/guardians who have made a referral and requested assistance from the team
- A new Individual Student Improvement Plan (ISIP) is created for new referrals; incorporating suggestions from parents/guardians, teachers, and other staff
- Students previously referred are discussed; progress or continued concern is noted; recommendations are made for changes, if any, to the existing ISIP
