Resource Specialist Program Teacher Pool

Assisted by an instructional aide, the Resource Specialist provides direct instructional services to students identified by the individualized Education Program Team as needing such instruction, and identifies and recommends appropriate support services for these students as needed. The Resource Specialist provides consultation services to regular program teachers in conformance with Individualized Education Plans (IEP's) for leaning disabled students assigned to the Resource specialist program. The Resource specialist with an aide will service an average of 24 students (maximum of 28). The major focus of the Resource Specialist program will be directed toward enabling students to function adequately in the least restrictive environment (usually a regular classroom in the student's home school) in which they and other students can be successful.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT

Pacifica School District, the community it serves, and the children they cherish, together prepare each child to meet the challenges of the future by providing an equitable, rigorous academic program which nurtures curiosity and inspires joy, confidence, and achievement in learning.

OUR LOCAL CONTROL ACCOUNTABILITY PLAN (LCAP)

The LCAP has three goals. Goal One addresses the conditions of learning which includes having a quality staff, instructional materials and safe school sites. Goal Two addresses student academic outcomes which includes impactful instruction and support that are informed by student assessment data. Goal Three addresses both social emotional health of our students and staff, and meaningful participation of our families which includes assessment and engagement with social emotional learning; supports for students, families and staff; promoting supportive school climate and providing for meaningful family input and participation.

Within all three of these goals, the actions follow within a three step plan. First, knowing our students and the impact the pandemic has had on them and their families. Second, expand instructional and social emotional support for our students. Third, understanding our impact on student success for all students.
