benchmark asd intervention specialist recommendation

our district has an increasing enrollment of students with ASD. Currently the caseload for these students is handled by special education teachers. Your principal has learned about your current educational studies at GCU and would like you to develop a proposal that informs leadership about the need for an ASD Intervention Specialist.

To address the request of the principal, draft a 1,500-1,750-word proposal to present to the school board. Include:

  • An introductory summary of the growing population of students with ASD (K-12) within the district and state.
  • How the political landscape has shifted historically in addressing the needs of K-12 students with ASD, affecting current evidence based practices.
  • Evidence-based practices and relevant laws to advocate for programs that model professional expectations and ethical practices to create a supportive environment intended to improve outcomes for students with ASD and their families.
  • How an ASD Intervention Specialist position will mentor and coach special education and general education teachers to apply knowledge of theories, supports, and services for individuals with ASD.
  • A staff position description for the ASD Intervention Specialist who will mentor and coach special education and general education teachers on issues related to serving students with ASD. The staff position description should be consistent with the Council for Exceptional Children Draft Advanced Special Education Developmental Disability in Autism Specialist set of knowledge and skill standards.
  • Two measurable outcomes and an evaluation process to evaluate the effectiveness of the new position and the effect of the new program.

Cite a minimum of three scholarly resources within your presentation.
