The Process Begins

Denton I.S.D. is dedicated to provide the best possible transportation for all our assigned Special Needs students.

How it begins: When a person puts in an application: A Federal background check is completed. The training department conducts an interview and if it is

decided to hire the person, That person is sent for a physical and drug screening.

If they pass this section then paperwork is submitted to Human Resources and the person goes for fingerprints.

After all this is completed the person returns to the training department to begin training. There is not a set amount of hours for the training, but there is a set amount of information that must be covered.

Page 31: Head Start Annual Report for 2011-2012€¦ · Lisa Sutton Adriane Cruz Licensed Social ... 2 19, 670 - 18,157 18,156 - 16,644 16, 644 - 15131 ... Containment 2 Harden Cruz Monitor

It Includes: Drivers are assigned 13 videos with work sheets and test. Monitors are assigned 9 videos and work sheets and test. Both are required to complete: The Student Transportation Procedures Manual [91 pg.] with

tests. Student Safety Workbook [21pg] with test. Special Needs Scenario Workbook/quiz [15 pg.] Bus Attendant Orientation workbook/quizzes [33 pg.] Training with a specific trainer on the installation and

operation of equipment on a school bus. Student Access Card Program. Student Safety Class with a Student Safety officer which

includes power point presentation, question and answer, and hands on paperwork. [3 1/2 hrs.]

Page 32: Head Start Annual Report for 2011-2012€¦ · Lisa Sutton Adriane Cruz Licensed Social ... 2 19, 670 - 18,157 18,156 - 16,644 16, 644 - 15131 ... Containment 2 Harden Cruz Monitor

..and it continues…

A Special Needs Class with the Special Needs Supervisor. Covers what to expect from students, laws and regulations, scenarios, methods of redirecting behaviors, methods to working with parents, loading and unloading procedures and evacuation procedures, Written question and answer quiz. [4hrs].

New drivers are assigned to a route and ride with a trainer during their training to become familiar with the route, the students and how to handle whatever situations that arise. Between the routes they have behind the wheel training and assistance with preparing for their written tests with the Texas Department of Transportation as well as covering all the afore listed material.

New monitors are assigned to ride on specific Special Needs routes to experience first hand what occurs on the routes and how to work with the students and equipment. This will consist of two to four various routes over a couple of weeks.

Page 33: Head Start Annual Report for 2011-2012€¦ · Lisa Sutton Adriane Cruz Licensed Social ... 2 19, 670 - 18,157 18,156 - 16,644 16, 644 - 15131 ... Containment 2 Harden Cruz Monitor

Assignments:

There are several variables to consider when making a route assignment:

The personality, skills and mind set of the new person needs to be a fit with the specific needs and personality of all the students on the route.

Compatibility with the other route team member with the ability to form a strong team working relationship with their partner.

The capability of working with parents and campus staff.

Releasing Students

Precautions are in place to ensure students are released to the correct person.

Parents receive a form to list all persons that have permission to receive their student. The formed is copied with a copy going into the route box and a copy into the students file.

The route teams are trained to have the parents call the Special Needs office when they want to add someone to the list and a new form is provided to add that person. Personal contacts with parents also ensures there is a current list.

Upon arrival at a stop location and an unknown person is present, they are asked to provide identification and their names are compared to the authorized Receiver’s list.

When their names are not on the list a call is made to the dispatch office and a call is made to the parent to verify the waiting person.

Without proper verification the student remains on the bus until there is parent notification.

In the worst case scenario, the student is returned to the Transportation Department to wait until they can be released to the parent.

Student Information Each Route is supplied with a route box that contains: A binder with information sheets on each student.

Including an Arial map of the mobile home parks, apartments and any unusual locations to ensure that the students location will be found correctly.

Route Sheets with student name and address. Student Roster. A seating chart. An evacuation plan. A seizure record. A Driver’s Notes for the route sheet. An Authorized Receivers form. A Change of Drop-Off and Pick-Up form. Area map. Other misc. information sheets

Bus Maintenance:

The on site shop maintains a scheduled maintenance and repair of all buses.

The bus team completes a Vehicle Condition Report before and after each route.

The pre-trip inspection report consists of 44 points of consideration, while the post trip has 52 points.

If there are any issues with the bus the report is turned into the maintenance department immediately for follow up.

School Readiness Act of 2007 ACF-Pi-HS-11-04

The Initiative began in 2007 and was launched 11/8/2011

Child Development and Education

Ongoing Monitoring begins at enrollment. All students are screened using DIAL-4. After analyzing data, teachers and parents collaborate and write goals for each child. The goal sheet is called the IDP Individualized Development Plan Teachers give each student a code that is reflected on the lesson plan to show when and where individualization occurs. Students are assessed daily. Data collected is placed in the student portfolio.

• IDP • Portfolio Assessment Tool • DISD Prekindergarten Report Card (every 6

weeks) • School Readiness Outcomes (quarterly)

Goal -medical and non-medical needs of the patient are met.

Accommodating Children with Special Dietary Needs and Disabilities

USDA Regulations require that school districts comply with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. This act prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability.

Denton Public Schools shall operate the school meal program so that it will be considered readily accessible and usable by qualified disabled students.

PROCEDURE:

Food Service staff are required to make substitutions or modifications to the meal requirement for those participants with disabilities who are unable to consume the meals offered at no extra charge to the student.

Page 63: Head Start Annual Report for 2011-2012€¦ · Lisa Sutton Adriane Cruz Licensed Social ... 2 19, 670 - 18,157 18,156 - 16,644 16, 644 - 15131 ... Containment 2 Harden Cruz Monitor

Accommodating Children with Special Dietary Needs and Disabilities

PROCEDURE (continued):

A licensed physician’s medical statement is required and kept on file. The statement must be based on the regulatory criteria for “disabled person” and contain a finding that the disability restricts the participant’s diet.

If the disabled student requires only textural modification to the meal, the medical statement is recommended, but not required.

Furnishings must be acceptable and usable for disabled students . The school may choose to use aides to assist students. It is not the responsibility of the Child Nutrition Department to assist the child in eating his/her meal.

Accommodating Children with Special Dietary Needs and Disabilities

PROCEDURE:

A special diet or a menu item modification is planned, if needed, by the Child Nutrition Coordinator and discussed with the cafeteria manager.
