AR 5005.2 – Determining the Need for Temporary Intensive Supports Assessment (TISA)
The goal for any student with special needs is to encourage, promote, and maximize independence. Periodic observations and review of data may be required to assess the effectiveness of this additional support and to monitor the duration of services. The IEP team should identify the next scheduled observation date, often within six months and no later than the next annual IEP review, to continually monitor the effectiveness of the temporary intensive supports provided to the student. The TISA Annual Review Fading Plan (D/M 157K) should be used to review and determine the current needs of the student.
