  • IEP Management: Conduct functional vision and learning media assessments; write, implement, and monitor progress on Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals.
  • Collaboration & Consultation: Collaborate with general education teachers, special education staff, and parents to adapt classroom materials, modify assignments, and implement necessary accommodations.
