Summary:
|
This school year, the Personnel Services department and Special Education have found 10 new district staff employees to fill vacant Speech and Language Pathologists positions for the 2015-2016 school year. This is a significant improvement to the Mt. Diablo Unified School District Speech and Language Department with coverage of services and support at the sites. However, Mt. Diablo Unified School District continues to have a need to utilize Independent Service Contractors to provide services established through the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) process. Both 360 Degree Customer Inc. and BMR Health Services Inc. have SLP's who can provide speech and language pathologists (SLP's) for vacant SLP positions in the district, independent speech evaluations and speech services to Non-Public Schools.
A comparison sheet is attached in the supporting documents with a breakdown of information. |
