Keystone Classroom Protocol
Although we individualize services to each student, we find that the minimum services a student with hearing loss and auditory processing disorder should have include:
- Start of year in-services to educate new team/teacher on accommodations & hearing assistive technology if used (recommended within first two weeks of school)
- Year-end reviews in May to review yearly progress and assess needs for following year
- Summer Servicing and safe storage of hearing assistive technology (if used)
To learn more about all of our services available, visit our services page.
When a new student enters the district, we follow our new student onboarding process, which is a 5-step process. (** Indicates this step is only needed if the audiologist has recommended a trial with H.A.T.):
- Referral (from special education department)
- Individualized needs assessment and consultation
- Family and school consent**
- Validation period**
- Accommodations Review
To learn more in depth about each of these 5 steps, visit our page on onboarding a new student.
