Alternate Transportation<br />
A reminder to complete an<br />
alternative transportation request<br />
for all students in your school<br />
who need to be transported to<br />
school in a different way than<br />
their peers. This includes parental<br />
or EA transportation, alternate<br />
school bus routes, special abilities<br />
bus, taxi, wheelchair accessible<br />
school bus, etc. All students need<br />
to be updated annually. Please<br />
review your alternate<br />
transportation requests to ensure<br />
the information reflects the<br />
students’ current transportation<br />
needs. Once recorded in TPM, in<br />
the spring you will be asked to<br />
clone the request, update for the<br />
new school year and make any<br />
additions or deletions to the list.<br />
Special Funding Request<br />
If you are requesting funds to<br />
provide students with music<br />
therapy, additional swimming,<br />
bowling or any other extracurricular<br />
events that are reflected<br />
in the IIP goals, please complete<br />
the Special Funding Request on<br />
TPM and email your SSC when<br />
your request has been submitted.<br />
IPADS<br />
Students will have their iPads<br />
returned to them in the first<br />
week in September. As part of<br />
our technology tool kit, each<br />
SST will receive one iPad for<br />
student trials and use at school.<br />
These will be distributed on<br />
Oct. 8th at our Positive Path<br />
Forward Day in Yorkton. All<br />
<strong>SSTs</strong> are to attend this day<br />
which includes training on<br />
various apps.<br />
IIPS<br />
New Students on IIPs: TPM<br />
has not automatically added<br />
IIPs for students transferring to<br />
your school from another<br />
<strong>GSSD</strong> school. A temporary<br />
solution is to add your new<br />
student by clicking the ‘add’<br />
button and typing in the<br />
student’s last name. You should<br />
then be able to see your new<br />
student on the return to listing<br />
page for all templates (referral,<br />
IIP etc). If you are having<br />
difficulty please contact TPM<br />
and provide the name of the<br />
student and their previous and<br />
present school.<br />
A random sampling of IIPs will<br />
be selected for formal review on<br />
an annual basis.<br />
IIPs are due September 30th for<br />
existing IIPs and Oct 30th for<br />
students new to <strong>GSSD</strong>.<br />
Interdisciplinary Meetings<br />
ID meeting templates are now<br />
on TPM. Please complete and<br />
upload all supporting<br />
documentation for the October<br />
ID Meetings a minimum of one<br />
week ahead of your schedule<br />
meeting.
