The People You Meet - School Personnel

(Page 4)

Media Specialist

The media specialists are responsible for the audio and video equipment in the school and would make sure that equipment is available for teachers during lectures and classes. They may also have equipment for special needs students that may require additional learning aids.

Educational Consultant

Educational consultants work independently of schools and are hired privately by families to assist in developing an Individualized Educational Program or a Section 504 Plan. Educational consultants work with the families to help determine what services or accommodations a student will need to succeed in school. They will often attend meetings at the school with the parents as advocates. Educational consultants work with families in locating outside programs or schools for at-risk youth. They also help families find college programs and financial aid.
