Statewide High School Transition – A Decentralized Function of the Texas Education Agency |
| |
Education Service Center Region XI provides statewide leadership for the Statewide High School Transition Network. As the state lead, ESC Region XI facilitates the coordination of the 20 regional Education Service Center transition specialists' activities in an effort to meet the needs of high school students receiving special education services across the state of Texas. |
|
In collaboration with the network members, ESC Region XI is responsible for coordination of: |
- a state level needs assessment process;
- determination of state priorities,
- development of the network plan; and
- evaluation of the effectiveness of statewide activities and services.
|
|
The professional development and technical assistance provided by the Statewide Transition Network focuses on building capacity within the school to respond appropriately to both federal and state legislation. The Network works to ensure that students receiving special education services have the supports in place to help them reach their post-school outcomes/goals for successfully functioning in the adult world.
|
| Additionally, ESC Region XI serves as the first point of contact for education service centers and provides information and guidance when requested by the Texas Education Agency. |

|
| |
Transition is students envisioning where they want to be in terms of living and employment, and working with a team to determine and design programs, services, and opportunities to help them get there. |
