Jennifer Oiler/Tracy Wright Partial Hospitalization (NTC), Bradford County

Partial Hospitalization Programs are designed for students whose intensive behavioral or social needs are beyond services that can be provided in the public schools. These programs are off campus programs run in conjunction with agencies providing intensive counseling. BLaST Intermediate Unit 17 provides the educational component for the Partial Hospitalization Programs within our geographic boundaries. An elementary program is located in the Williamsport School District that provides services for students from 7 to 12 years of age. Counseling is provided by Behavior Specialists, Inc.

Psychological Services

Mark A. Nevill Lead Psychologist

Psychological services are provided in the areas of assessment, consultation, intervention and professional development. Assessment services are most frequently utilized when determining a student’s eligibility for

25

special education services in school. These assessments cover a wide range of areas that include academic skills, learning aptitudes, behavior, social skills, personality and emotional development. In determining the unique needs of students, assessment plays a key role for successful learning and positive behavior change. Our consultation service meets a variety of needs. Often, consultation is requested for assistance in developing Positive Behavior Support plans. This type of service also included those times when parents may be concerned about their child’s developmental progress, or as teachers begin to express concern over a student’s academic progress. In these cases psychologists assist in the development and implementation of pre-referral activities. Consultations help all of us become better prepared to assist our student’s education. Creating a behavioral intervention for positive behavior change flows from the results of either formal assessment or perhaps as a result of a consultation. Behavioral interventions are then designed to target the unique needs of the student while also considering the learning environment of the student. Intervention not only looks at the behavioral aspects of students but also their unique learning styles and appropriate learning strategies. Our staff is available for your professional development needs. For classroom teachers, administrators, and special education coordinators who would like to learn additional ways to help and understand students with special needs contact us. Our staff will assist you in planning a schedule for your professional development needs.

Remedial Support (Act 89) Gigi Kilroe

Supervisor of Itinerant Programs Remedial support is available to those students who attend nonpublic schools whose skills fall below grade level expectancy. Students who receive this service must be identified and prioritized by a team that has considered the need through reviewing records such as: achievement testing, psychological evaluation, past performance, grades, teacher recommendation, and parent concerns. Remedial reading support focuses on building reading comprehension, reading fluency, and vocabulary through a sound knowledge foundation of reading skills. This specialized instruction/support is not special education nor is it tutoring, but it is aligned with classroom instruction to maximize student strength and assist students with individual reading related needs. Math services are designed to assist students to work on math assignments from the school curriculum within small groups or individually with

26

the instructor. Supplementary instruction and practice of math concepts afford students with additional instruction in math processes and practice opportunities.

School Social Work Services

Gigi Kilroe Supervisor of Itinerant Services

School social work services are provided by a professional staff person certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. School social workers develop positive interpersonal relationships between members of the school, parents, students and external agencies. They assist schools in case management, assist with family and student problems and may also serve as attendance officers. Districts may secure Intermediate Unit social work services through the Division of Student Services.

Speech/Language Stephanie Weikel

Supervisor of Speech Therapy Services

The Speech and Language Support program provides educational support services to students who demonstrate impairments in speech, language, and communication. Disorders in the areas of articulation/phonology, voice, fluency, and language must be evident to such a degree that academic achievement is affected. If diagnostic testing is indicated, BLaST Intermediate Unit 17’s Speech and Language staff follows evaluation procedures implemented by IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Act, Amendments of 1997). Speech and language therapists follow referral guidelines, which are specific to the district being served. Service delivery models include consultative, individual direct therapy, small group direct therapy, and whole group instruction.

Surrogate Parent Program

Todd Moyer Reading Consultant

To ensure the right to a free and appropriate public education for students with disabilities whose parents are unknown and unavailable, a surrogate parent is assigned. The function of surrogate parents is to represent students in those circumstances where decisions need to be made regarding student educational placement and program. The Intermediate Unit assists school districts in training and recruiting surrogate parents. …For more specific details, please refer to our web site, www.iu17.org
