Child Study Team (CST)

The Child Study Team of Hillsborough Middle School is comprised of a school psychologist, a social worker, and a learning disabilities teacher consultant.  The members of the Child Study Team provide valuable consultation to the teaching staff with regard to all students at HMS.   However, the primary responsibility of the Child Study Team is to conduct evaluations of students for potential learning disabilities and assist in the development of individual education plans if needed.  Programs of special education may include modifications to traditional instructional and assessment strategies, additional educational support services, speech therapies, occupational therapies, and/or alternative classroom settings.
