3 weeks ago
Iowa Department of Education’s mission is creating excellence in education through leadership and service. To accomplish our mission, we need talented, passionate people working together to make this a reality.
Responsibilities Include -
Provide support, technical assistance and monitoring related to the ten standards by which students are identified and evaluated for special education under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and state law. Iowa's eligibility standards are as follows: 1. Qualified professionals must be part of all decisions about a child’s special education eligibility. 2. All special education decisions are based on sound data. 3. When a public agency suspects that a child might have a disability that might require special education, the agency seeks parental consent for an initial evaluation. 4. Children and parents receive procedural protections whenever special education eligibility is questioned, reviewed, or established. 5. Evaluations are fair, thorough and comply with the requirements of special education law. 6. To be eligible for special education, a child must have a “disability.” 7. If a child’s low performance is due to lack of opportunity to learn or due to cultural or language difference, the child does not have a “disability.” 8. A child’s disability must cause a need for special education before the child is eligible for special education. 9. A child’s evaluation determines and describes the eligible individual’s special education needs. 10. If a child is eligible for special education services, the child’s IEP team uses evaluation data to draft an IEP that addresses the needs identified in the evaluation.
Provide support, technical assistance and general supervision over the administration of special education programs provided in the public schools and compliance monitoring procedures in state operated special education programs and Department of Human Services.
Maintain a working knowledge of the state and federal policy and the impact of proposed legislation on the bureaus and the institutions and programs it oversees.
Work with Administrative Consultants and other EPCs across the Department and Division to integrate and align assessments, reporting and compliance requirements with state and federal law. Work cross agency to provide support for measures other teams use in data and analytics to support their work.
Support the Department priorities through performing other duties as assigned by the Bureau Chief or Administrative Consultant.
What’s in it for you?
Opportunities to make a widespread difference in the lives of children, their families, and Iowa communities
Collaborative, positive work environment
Talented and passionate work colleagues that will help you learn and grow
Opportunities to collaborate with experts from around the country
Employee discounts from a variety of vendors
