Student Services Purpose

The Office of Student Services attends to the extenuating/foundational circumstances that are barriers for scholars to learn and families to thrive. 

Student Services serves under these core principles:

• Ensures that CMSD’s strong instructional core is accessible, scaffolded, and relevant for students with disabilities, students learning English, homeless and foster youth, students with medical needs, and gifted students. 
• Designs, Supports, Implements, and Monitors evidence-based practices in schools to address the needs of the diverse groups/populations in CMSD.
• Uses data-driven decision-making to maximize support to schools.
• Focuses on culturally responsive practices and Multi-Tiered Systems of Support to ensure access to learning for all diverse groups/populations.
• Builds understanding of student neurodiversity, wellness, health literacy, and foundational services across the organization that exist to support those needs.
