2014-2015 Pennsylvania School District Medicaid Reimbursements for School Based ACCESS Services 2014-2015 Pennsylvania School District Medicaid Reimbursements for School Based ACCESS Services For nearly 30 years, schools across Pennsylvania have used Medicaid to fund the School Based ACCESS program to cover certain health-related services for Medicaid eligible children. Children covered by Medicaid may receive primary or preventive services in a school-based center, such as hearing and vision screenings. Pennsylvania also uses Medicaid dollars to help schools provide services described in a child’s special education plan under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). This includes services such as occupational and physical therapy, nursing, mental health, and aides in the classroom. Medicaid also covers health services for eligible children through the Early and Periodic Screening Diagnosis and Treatment Services (EPSDT). In Fiscal Year 2014-2015, the Federal share of Medicaid funding for Pennsylvania School Based ACCESS services was nearly $145 million. Under the Republican plan to cap Medicaid expenditures, state elected officials may be forced to cut funding to schools that provide special education services to students with disabilities. Below you will find a district by district breakdown of PA school-based Medicaid funding. Intermediate Units highlighted in yellow.

Kirk, Clinical Associate Professor, Teaching, Leading, and Learning ii Copyright © by Jamie Lusebrink 2021 iii Abstract Evaluating a School-Wide Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports Program for System Improvement Jamie Lusebrink, EdD University of Pittsburgh, 2021 The place of inquiry implemented a School-Wide Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (SWPBIS) plan in 2016 with the goal of building a positive organizational climate while reducing the number of discipline infractions and office referrals. Although interventions and supports have been in place since the original implementation of the SWPBIS programming, suspensions and office referrals continue to occur at an alarming rate, particularly in third through fifth grades. These suspensions were creating gaps in learning for students due to the loss of instructional time without effectively addressing the behaviors to reduce further occurrences. This mixed methods study evaluated the current School-Wide Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (SWPBIS) programming and implementation at the building of inquiry against best practices based on a state-wide model of SWPBIS with the purpose to make recommendations for improvement.

  • The Pittsburgh I Remember Is a City That Will Use This Act of Hate to Build a Place of Love and Hope
    THE PITTSBURGH I REMEMBER IS A CITY THAT WILL USE THIS ACT OF HATE TO BUILD A PLACE OF LOVE AND HOPE By Ron Sirak • @ronsirak October 28, 2018 I remember the old Pittsburgh, the grimy city of steel mills and pollution, a lunch pail-carrying kind of place where the sweat of the blast furnaces was washed away with a shot and a beer. I remember a fiercely proud area that viewed Eastern Pennsylvania as another state, perhaps even another country. Pittsburgh, Western Pennsylvania, even has its own language. Phrases such as: “What yinz doin’ after you red up the house?” clang on the outsider’s ear like the wail of a car alarm at 3 in the morning. My mother, who worked as a welder from 7 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. and then as a cleaning woman in an office from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., said of Eastern Pa.: “They’re from the anthracite region; we’re from the bituminous region,” as if that was a stamp you’d get on your passport. My father drove a ladle crane in about every mill in Western Pa. and Eastern Ohio as the steel industry was dying. United Engineering. Mesta Machine. Youngstown Sheet & Tube, Sharon Steel, Jones & Laughlin and finally Pennsylvania Engineering in our hometown of New Castle, 50 miles from Pittsburgh. That’s where he was working when he died at the age of 45, the life sucked from him by relentlessly hard work. When I was a kid the Interstate hadn’t been built yet and the drive to Pittsburgh to see a Pirates game at Forbes Field was an arduous affair, following a windy road that that traced the river.
