Strategic Planning and School Improvement
Whether you are in the process of expanding your special education services or working on a school improvement plan, Rivermont is equipped to provide a comprehensive and tailored plan designed to position your district, schools, staff, and students for success. The ever-increasing demand for student support has posed challenges for many educational institutions. In the aftermath of the pandemic, students are grappling with heightened levels of depression and anxiety, with a staggering statistic revealing that 1 in 5 students are now diagnosed with a mental, emotional, or behavioral disorder.
Rivermont collaborates closely with each district to craft a customized strategy and plan that meets your unique circumstances and provides you with a clear roadmap to achieve success.
Professional Development
At the core of Rivermont's IDC program lies the provision of professional development opportunities for your teams. Our ultimate goal, by the conclusion of our partnership, is to ensure that every school and district possesses the skills, knowledge, and competencies required to provide exceptional special education services. We offer a spectrum of professional growth opportunities tailored to educators and staff, encompassing the implementation of inclusive practices, the enhancement of instructional strategies, and the cultivation of a supportive classroom environment conducive to the needs of all learners. These opportunities are available through in-person sessions, virtual formats, and self-paced modules.
