Summary:
|
Ensemble Therapy is a non-public agency (NPA) that provides Behavior Therapists and paraprofessionals for school-based services that are identified on Individualized Education Program (IEP's) and 504 Plans. When Mt. Diablo Unified School District is unable to fill all open positions with District employees, the use of certified NPAs is necessary to ensure that the District is in compliance with state and federal law that governs special education. Ensemble Therapy provides these special education services to ensure that all of our needed services are covered for the 2024-2025 school year. Mt. Diablo Unified School District Human Resources, Student Services and Special Education continues to recruit and hire district employees.
