Distance Learning Plans (DLP) - Overview ● As SSD staff return to work in August, they will be collaborating with parents to develop updated Distance Learning Plans. ● Distance learning will include direct (live virtual) instruction as well as lessons/learning activities, support and consultation. ● DLPs will be completed by Case Managers in consultation with special education teachers, related service providers, general education staff, and families ● A formal meeting is not necessary in order to complete the plans. Effective collaboration to develop the plan can take place in a variety of ways. ● Every two weeks, plans will be reviewed by the Case Manager in consultation with service providers and parents/guardians. Plans will be adjusted, only if necessary, and resubmitted.

Distance Learning Plans (DLP) - Overview ● Are based on and grounded in the IEP ● The individualized Distance Learning Plans address: ○ ○ ○ Goals Services Accommodations and modifications Access to curriculum Available resources ● Services may be provided in the following formats: ○ ○ Direct (live/synchronous) Lessons and activities (asynchronous) Support of general education instruction Consultation

DLP - Special Education Services ● Distance learning for special education services will consist of these components: ○ ○ ○ Teachers will provide 5 learning activities to be completed independently per week across the skills areas outlined in the Distance Learning Plan. Teachers will provide 3 live group lessons per week. Teachers will hold virtual office hours for 1 hour per day at various times throughout the week. One half day a week will be allotted to staff for collaboration, planning, and paperwork. Assignment completion will be monitored, graded (when appropriate), and feedback given. Teachers will have assessments that provide evidence of learning aligned with instructional outcomes and/or course expectations. When a student is not attending the live sessions and/or not submitting the assignments the teacher will contact the school designee (ex. Social worker; counselor) for follow up to determine needed supports.

DLP - Related Services (Speech/Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Social Work/Counseling, Music Therapy) ● ● Students who will be attending school in person will receive related services in person according to the provider schedule to meet the needs of all students with related services on the IEP. Students who will be participating in 100% distance learning by choice, can choose one of the following options for provision of related services: a. Students can receive related services in person in the building. Parents can make a request to do so and students will be permitted to attend school for their related services only during their scheduled time. PLEASE NOTE: Transportation will not be available for parents who request to participate in the provision of related services in the building. OR b.
