SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHER
JESSICA WALTON
As the special education teacher, I support students in the classroom by adapting and modifying curriculum to meet the needs of students with disabilities. I administer assessments to monitor student understanding and progress throughout the year. I also collaborate with the classroom team with a focus on the students with Individualized Education Plans.
I work with students, families, and staff to develop IEP's along with developing and monitoring the students yearly goals. I ensure all mandates are addressed and the students are supported according to their plan.
My responsibilities also include co-teaching with the general education teacher during class instruction along with giving small group and one-on-one instruction to provide individualized support. I also implement strategies for individual students so they are able to access the gen ed curriculum
The general education teacher and I both work to create an accepting classroom environment by facilitating participation of all students in the classroom community.
