Summary
:
This school year, the Personnel Services department and Special Education department have been able to hire new district employees to fill vacant positions for qualified interpreters for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing students for the 2015-2016 school year. This is a significant improvement for the Mt. Diablo Unified School District as a whole, with coverage of services and support at the sites for identified interpreting needs. However, Mt. Diablo Unified School District continues to have a need to utilize Independent Service Contractors to provide services established through the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) process.
Beyond the Words has qualified interpreters who can fill the needed positions of Educational Interpreter for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, and can provide interpreting services to our Deaf and Hard of Hearing population as needed and identified through the IEP process.
