I am working with a parent who is looking for an NPS that can provide what her son needs. I put together a list of questions to ask when she visits schools this coming week. Maybe these will be helpful for you:

Do you provide trauma informed therapy?

How do you manage what appears to be aggressive behavior but is actually due to an attempt to communicate?

Do you have a BCBA on campus daily?

How do staff distinguish between trauma responses and willful noncompliance?

What training do staff receive in trauma-informed care?

How are dysregulation episodes handled?

What de-escalation methods are used before restraint or removal?

How often are restraints or emergency interventions used?

Is your program primarily behavioral, therapeutic, academic, or a combination?

How are sensory needs accommodated?

What types of students typically attend this program?

What are the most common eligibility categories?

What percentage of students are verbal/nonverbal?

How do you group students?

What is the average class size?

How do you monitor progress toward IEP goals?

Is there a quiet or regulation space available?

What is your staff turnover rate?

How often do parents receive communication?

Are parents contacted after behavioral incidents?

Can parents observe classrooms?

How are concerns handled when parents disagree with staff interpretations of behavior?

What type of student tends to do best in your program?

Can you describe situations where this program may not be the right fit?

What is the standard case loads for your BCBAs?

What sensory/OT Equipment do you have?

FOR STUDENTS WITH SUSPECTED MOTOR APRAXIA:
Do you know what motor apraxia is?
Do you have someone who understands it and can provide therapy to address Motor Apraxia needs?

Dear CVUSD SPED Parents,
I’m reaching out to encourage you to attend the upcoming School Board meeting (March 19 at 6:00 pm) and consider speaking in support of Chris Farley, our Program Specialist.
In special education, strong leadership at the team level makes a tremendous difference for students. Mr. Farley consistently works to bring IEP teams together in a way that is collaborative, student-centered, and solution-focused. Rather than allowing meetings to become procedural or passive, he actively helps align staff, service providers, and families to ensure that student needs remain the priority.
Many of us have experienced how impactful it is when a Program Specialist:
1) Encourages open, respectful dialogue
2) Helps bridge differences between team members
3) Focuses on practical solutions
4) Keeps student needs at the center of decision-making
5) Ensures follow-through and accountability
This type of leadership supports not only students, but families and staff as well. When teams function effectively, students benefit.
If you feel Mr. Farley has positively impacted your child or your IEP experience, your voice could be meaningful at the board meeting. Even a brief statement about your experience and the importance of collaborative leadership, mutual respect, and students coming first in special education can make a difference.
Board meetings allow public comment, limited to a few minutes per speaker. Sharing specific examples of how strong team facilitation has supported your child can be especially powerful.
Thank you for considering lending your voice in support of collaborative, student-centered special education leadership.
