The SST Process Procedures

RationaleProceduresRtI Pyramid

Rationale for SSTs – 3 P’sProvide all students with universal access to the

curriculum using systematic assessments to identify and remediate student needs before repeated failure takes place.

Provide all students with the least restrictive educational environment.

Provide documentation that all appropriate General Education Accommodations have been attempted in an effort to increase a student’s success in the General Education setting.

District Rationale

In 2011, CNUSD was found disproportionate in the number of Hispanic students identified for special education under the eligibility of Specific Learning Disability.

The district had entered its first year Of Program Improvement.

These two findings led to the development of the new Student Success Team(SST) procedures and forms.
