About
The Child Study Team provides case management for all students found eligible for special education and/or related services, and ensures compliance with state regulations (N.J.A.C. 6A:14). Case managers coordinate the development, monitoring and evaluation of the IEP, and conduct initial and reevaluations to determine current student needs and eligibility for services. Individual counseling as a related service is provided by the School Psychologist and School Social Worker; additional related services are provided through contracted services. Students are provided linkage with the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation for employment services and post-secondary education assistance, as well as referrals to other community resources as needed. The Child Study Team supports the SEPAG (Special Education Parent Advisory Group) with yearly meetings to provide information and encourage family feedback and involvement.
