Speech Language Pathologists...I need your opinion.

Hello Speech Language Pathologists

I have three topics I would like you to sound off on..........

1. Does your school have formal entrance and exit criteria? If so what is it and do you use it? Several years ago I was under the impression that you could not use specific entrance and exit criteria but I guess that changed with the new changes in the laws.

2. Do you have a problem with teachers and administrators understanding your role? I believe that most still think all we do is articulation, which could not be further from the truth. I also think that they do not understand that these so called artic kids could be shooting up red flags for reading and discrimination disabilities.

3. What is your district doing about RTI/co-teaching/integrating therapy (whatever you want to call it....it seems to be interpreted differently by many) ? What is their model and how will it effect your job?
