The management needs section of the student’s IEP must make clear the circumstances during the school day, including related services and nonacademic settings such as lunch and transitions, for which the student requires the support of a paraprofessional. IEP-assigned paraprofessionals must attend related service sessions if the management needs section of the IEP indicates the student requires services in that setting. Either way, related service providers should let paraprofessionals know how they can support related service goals in the classroom (see the DOE's Special Education Standard Operation Procedures Manual (SOPM), Special Considerations: IEP-Assigned Paraprofessionals section).
