Meeting Agenda Topics
The meeting agenda topics include
16.1 - Supporting Equitable Opportunities for All, the Board will be asked to authorize the administration to enter into an agreement with SameGoal Inc. SameGoal software has been used by Ohio school districts. This online web-based software is used by district personnel to write, review, and modify Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) and Evaluation Team Reports (ETRs) for students with disabilities. SameGoal includes all required, optional and model Special Education forms published by the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce to help districts, above all, remain compliant. As state and federal Special Education requirements evolve, SameGoal makes changes to remain current. Administrators are able to view documents, leverage administrative reports and extract state reporting data. SameGoal also has online guides and helpdesk access for all users that helps staff get high-quality answers to questions from educators.
