What Is a Sponsor Teacher?

 
The responsibility of the sponsor teachers at the middle and secondary levels is to maintain and monitor each student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP). Parents are strongly encouraged to contact the sponsor teacher as the first line of communication in a system of assurances that their child’s IEP is properly implemented. The sponsor teacher will contact the parents of his or her assigned students early in the school year. If you are unsure of who your child’s sponsor teacher is, call the Special Education Department.
