FURTHER RECOMMEND that the attorney for the District prepares the appropriate contract
and proper officers of the Board of Education be authorized to execute the contract on behalf
of the District.
DISCUSSION: A separate agenda item for Columbia Teen Screen will be submitted at a

forcing the student to be identified as a special education student. These school-based
services will include individual counseling, family counseling, referral services, classroom
consultation, and team intervention and case management. Services provided under this
contract will operate through the Child Study Teams and will provide an excellent opportunity
to increase the skills and training of our own staff members who participate in the team
process.
The program components will be provided by a Licensed Practicing Counselor (LPC) or
Master of Social Work (MSW) under the supervision of the Mental Health Association and
the principal of the school. The Department of Special Education and Student Services will

The following conditions must be met by Mental Health Association: 1) All Mental Health
Association staff must provide proof that they have permission from the parent/guardian to
work with a student in the building. The counselor will only see the student at the time

actions which are inappropriate and create a disruption within the school, the principal may
request them to leave and discontinue allowing them to see the student during the school
day. 2) The Mental Health Association employee must have in their possession, at all times,
a current photo ID which identifies them as a staff member of Mental Health Association. 3)
The Mental Health Association counselor may not be written into a student’s IEP. 4) Mental
Health Association may only work with students who are Medicaid eligible. 4) Mental Health
Association may not work with students and charge the parent/guardian or the
parent’s/guardian’s insurance. 5) Mental Health Association staff will be required to submit
proof to the Department of Special Education and Student Services that they have passed
background checks and a drug screening in order to be in the building. A list of approved
staff who has met these criteria will be sent to the school from the Department of Special
Education and Student Services.
Program components support the academic goals of TPS by decreasing out-of-school
suspensions, improving attendance, and increasing classroom academic learning time.
RELATIONSHIP TO THE MISSION: Behavioral and/or mental health services provided
within a school setting in a team effort will enhance the educational opportunities for students
to demonstrate high levels of academic achievement and social responsibility.
RELATIONSHIP TO THE VISION: Students whose emotional and behavioral needs are
being addressed demonstrate greater school participation and higher levels of achievement.
These services will provide the opportunity for families and children to receive a broad range
of services designed to increase their greater participation within the educational community
of TPS.
