Student Services

The Reed Union School District delivers a comprehensive academic program that is aligned to California Content Standards. All instructional decisions are based on current research and best practices in education. Each school utilizes a professional learning community structure to organize teachers to collaborate and learn together.

Site administrators are responsible for ensuring students are regularly assessed to inform teachers in their instructional decisions. Both formative and summative assessments are regularly utilized.

RUSD students are served by approximately 150 full-time and part-time, certificated and classified staff.  Each school has a Learning Center/ RSP program to serve the needs of students with IEPs.  Reed and Bel Aire Schools have a Reading Specialist to provide intervention strategies.  The District has a speech therapist that provides speech/language services at all three school sites.

Learning Center Program

This program is designed to provide supplemental instruction in a small group setting. Students who are at-risk of not meeting District standards, or who have IEPs, come to the Learning Center to develop strategies and work on individual goals that will increase academic performance, to develop learning strategies, and learn advocacy skills for success in their general education classes.

Designated Instructional Services

Designated Instructional Services (DIS) are supplementary services provided to students, which are related to their identified disabilities; examples are speech and language services, counseling and services for the hard of hearing or visually impaired.

School Psychologist

Psychologists are responsible for conducting all assessments of students initially referred to special education and for students’ triennial reviews. Reed’s District School Psychologist provides these assessment services at all three school sites, as well as providing consultation services to staff, and overseeing group counseling based upon each school’s needs.
