Under the direction of the teacher, collect observational and academic data for the purpose of progress monitoring. Maintain students’ files/records for the purpose of documenting activities and/or providing reliable information. Under the direction of the teacher, follow and implement positive behavior support plans. Handle students’ personal needs (e.g., feeding, toileting, diapering, etc.) for the purpose of providing care to students who may or may not have medical conditions, but the medical concern is not the primary orientation for the student. Assist students’ safe transitions from/to locations and environments within and around the school (e.g., bus, cafeteria, community-based instruction, etc.). Participate in specialized training related to specific individualized needs of eligible students with IEPs. Maintain confidentiality in accordance with FERPA regulations/Chapter 14. Respond appropriately to emergency situations as per standing orders and other policies and procedures.

If the instructional paraprofessional is assigned to work with one student and the student is absent, the administrator of the building may reassign the paraprofessional during the absence of the student within special education.
