Each District 6 school has an in-building Student Support Services Team which meets on a regular basis to determine needs and develop strategies for individual students. The classroom teacher is an integral part of the group and serves as the case manager for the child presented. Other group members may include the principal, the Title 1 specialist, the resource teacher, the school psychologist, the speech-language pathologist, the social worker, and other classroom teachers. As a collaborative group, the members of the team discuss student needs, make recommendations, and share responsibilities.

The Student Support Services Team meets at a time when all personnel are available. Each case is reviewed to provide follow-through and updated information. Intervention strategies are suggested, documented, and implemented by the Student Support Services Team members.
