What are some examples of special education teachers providing Academic Intervention Services?
Certified special education teachers at both elementary and secondary levels may provide academic intervention services. However, if a special education teacher provides AIS to students with or without disabilities, it is not a special education service. For example, a special education teacher could provide: • After-school tutorials for students needing additional assistance; • Support services such as those described in the definition of Educationally Related Support Services, including curriculum and instructional modification; • Supplemental instruction in a general education resource room program that may include students with and without disabilities; and • Direct support to students enrolled in a general education class who are at risk of not gaining the knowledge and skills needed to meet or exceed designated performance levels on state tests. (This model is similar to the special education consultant teacher model).
