4. About MAISD Transition
Originally five satellite classrooms around the county
Used the MATS (bus) system to travel from classroom to classroom
Three to four staff and approximately students per satellite classroom
Classrooms leveled based on independence

5. All together
All five classrooms moved to one location in school year with some resistance.
Five different ways of teaching students
Five different ways of dealing with student behaviors
Five different levels of student independence

6. Independence All students go to job sites
Typically, 1 job coach with 2 students
Job sites are divided into 3 levels;
Work Exploration
Work Based Learning
Independent Vocational Training
Classes are now departmentalized
Our main goal is to develop independence in Job Skills, Daily Living, Self Determination, Community Participation

7. Some staff were resistant to doing PBIS
Some staff were resistant to doing PBIS! NO NEED for PBIS because our students are too old and we are getting them ready to be independent!!
