Description

Master Establishment and Transition Agreement between Savvis Communications Corporation and Bridge Information Systems, Inc. regarding the sale and purchase of Internet protocol backbone and other data transport services interest and the International Missouri Transition Agreement is a legally binding document that outlines the terms and conditions for transitioning an individual with disabilities from the school environment into the post-school adult life. It is designed to ensure a smooth and effective transition for students with disabilities in Missouri. The Missouri Transition Agreement is based on federal laws and regulations, such as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), which mandates that schools must provide appropriate transition services to help students with disabilities prepare for life after high school. It emphasizes the importance of providing individualized transition services to meet the unique needs of each student. This agreement includes several key components and may vary slightly depending on the specific needs of the student. Some important aspects typically covered in a Missouri Transition Agreement include: 1. Transition Assessments: To identify the student's strengths, interests, preferences, and needs, various assessments are conducted to guide the development of appropriate transition goals and services. 2. Post-Secondary Goals: This section clarifies the student's desired outcomes after high school, whether it's further education, vocational training, employment, or independent living. Goals are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART). 3. Transition Services: The agreement lists the specific services, supports, and activities, such as specialized instruction, counseling, job exploration, work-based learning experiences, and instruction in daily living skills, needed to assist the student in achieving their identified post-secondary goals. 4. Adult Agencies Collaboration: Collaboration with relevant adult service agencies, including Vocational Rehabilitation, Social Security Administration, and Medicaid, ensures a coordinated and seamless transition. 5. Timelines and Responsible Parties: The agreement clearly defines the timelines for implementing different activities, as well as the responsible parties involved in delivering each service. 6. Graduation and Exit Criteria: This section outlines the requirements that must be met to exit the transition services successfully, including criteria for receiving a diploma or certificate of completion. 7. Parent and Student Involvement: The agreement highlights the importance of parental and student involvement in the transition planning process, encouraging active participation and decision-making. Different types of Missouri Transition Agreements may exist based on the specific needs and circumstances of the student. Some examples include Vocational Rehabilitation Transition Agreements, Individualized Education Program (IEP) Transition Plans, and Comprehensive Transition Programs. Each type caters to unique aspects of the transition process and ensures collaboration among stakeholders involved, such as school personnel, parents, and external service agencies.
