Résumé: Ms. Yolonda is an Elementary School Principal. Today, she is leading an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meeting concerning Marcus, a fifth-grader with severe behavioural difficulties. The meeting takes place while he’s attending his English class, and she is pleased to learn from Marcus’ homeroom teacher that he is a strong athlete and per- forms very well in both his physical education and English classes. This strikes a contrast with yesterday’s meeting she had with the day-care supervisor who informed her that Marcus behaves in a very disruptive manner at lunchtime. Since those staff members weren’t able to be present at the meeting, she wondered how she could incorporate them into the IEP development process. Ms. Yolonda strongly believes that they play a key role in the student’s everyday school life.
