PLEASE NOTE: ONLY FIRST YEAR SPECIAL EDUCATION DIRECTORS should enroll to attend.
The Office of Special Education is hosting a Special Education Directors Conference on July 30-31, at Stoney Creek Inn. This conference is a two day event that will provide opportunities to all new special education directors. There will be a rotation of specific sessions that directors will take on the first day of the conference. The second day will provide more flexibility of choice for participants focusing on areas of compliance that will be monitored. Topics to be covered include but are not limited to: Eligibility Determinations, IEP Compliance, Mental Health and Behavior, Discipline, Post-Secondary Transition, and Data. We are currently planning on holding the summer conference face-to-face; however, due to the current situation, an alternative format might occur. A SELs message will be posted notifying participants of any changes.

Enrollment for the conference is now open for FIRST YEAR DIRECTORS ONLY. There is no registration fee required. Onsite registration will begin July 30, 2020, at 7:00 a.m. Pre-enrollment on My Learning Plan is required and will be verified at the registration desk to receive training materials, name badge, etc. Please, click here to enroll.  

Breakfast will be provided on both meeting days. Lunch will only be provided on the first day. All other expenses will be incurred by the district. Participants will be responsible for choosing a lodging location and making reservations. Stoney Creek Inn has provided a block of rooms at the state government rate on a first-come first-serve basis. The inclusive rate for purchase order purposes will be $89.25.
