13. In ALL settings supporting LID students, staff will work to increase independence in the following areas:  Social Skills  Self Advocacy  Pre – Vocational Skills  Functional Routines  Communication  Community Integration Round Rock ISD Proposal for Restructuring LID Services: Functional Academic Classes (FAC) - Students will have success with academic and/or elective subjects (accessing a variety of instructional settings), vocational classes that provide more intensive functional-based instruction in areas of academic, self-help, vocational, socialization and daily- community living. Instruction in FAC is aligned to STAAR-Alt Levels 2 & 3. Functional Learning Class (FLC) - Students will have success with basic life skills provided in a fully self-contained setting with provision of assistive technology, reverse inclusion, building tolerance of fine and gross motor tasks, increased environmental awareness and access to appropriate forms of communication - choice making, multi- modal, visual and/or auditory stimulation. Instruction in FLC is aligned to STAAR-Alt Level 1. Functional Communication Class (FCC) - Students will have success within a highly structured, fully-self contained classroom, built on intensive verbal behavior techniques, the development of effective communication using high rates of reinforcement, discrete trial and the implementation of a student's Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) as needed.
