'24-'25 Parent Request for School Counseling/Tier II/III Team Review
Dear Hemmerling Parents/Guardians,
Thank you so much for reaching out for support to help your student. Assessing and meeting student needs is Hemmerling Tier II/III team's highest priority, and we are so grateful that you are bringing your child's unique needs to our attention.
Hemmerling's 2024-2025 Tier II/III team is made up of our school's principal (Ileana Gutierrez), school counselor (Miss J), select general education (Tabitha Ramsey) and resource teachers (Amanda Mignano, Christy Valdivia, Abi Perez), Intervention Teacher & Instructional Coach (Heather Warner), and a school psychologist (Nicole Henderson-Smither).
The goal of the Tier II/III team is to use a team approach to identify and service students needing additional supports in academics, behavior, social/emotionally, and/or attendance in order to succeed at school. We hope to catch student needs early, brainstorm ways to assist the student in their least restrictive environment, actively monitor your students progress with new interventions in place, and actively collaborate with you and your student to measure success.
Students may be referred to the Tier II/III team via teacher, parent, student, or other school personnel request. Other data sources such as chronic tardiness or absences, test scores, student grades, low-level referrals, office discipline referrals, in school or off campus suspensions may also lead to a Tier II/III team referral.
*Please note: If your student has a current Student Study Team (SST) or an Individualized Education Program (IEP), speak with Miss J or case carrier for a follow-up meeting.
If you would like to refer your student for Tier II/III team review, please fill out the confidential form below. Its contents will be held in strict confidence with the Tier II/III team members.
Requests will be followed up by a Tier II/III team member within 1 - 3 business days.
Thank you for collaborating with us to meet your students needs,
Miss J
Hemmerling School Counselor
Tier II/III PBIS Coordinator
