Centering Parent and Student Voice Through Root Cause Analysis: One Charter School’s Story
Friday December 13, 2024 11:00am - 12:15pm PST
Meeting Room 3
“Those closest to the problem are often the closest to the solution but furthest from the resources and power.” The CIM team at Palmdale Aerospace Academy, led by Chris Riley, Director of Special Education Services, worked to counter this common scenario by centering student and parent voice in their CIM process. Hear their story and gather strategies for eliciting student and family voice through the use of empathy interviews and survey data. Participants will learn how TPAA used this data to gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of chronic absenteeism for students with disabilities within their LEA.
