Specialized Instructional Support Personnel

SISP

Specialized instructional support personnel (SISP) are critical to the well-rounded educational experience of students, and that’s why Share My Lesson has built a space to access relevant resources. The term “SISP” was introduced in 2015 in the Every Student Succeeds Act and replaced the term “pupil services personnel” that was used in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. SISP professionals include behavioral analysts, occupational/physical therapists, school counselors, school nurses, school psychologists, school social workers, speech-language pathologists, art therapists, dance/movement therapists, music therapists and other school-based healthcare providers. SISP can now find resources on Share My Lesson that address their specific needs.

Find Resources for SISP

Now it’s easier than ever for specialized instructional support personnel to find the resources they need. Searching by grade level, subject area and other keywords that best align with your work will help you find the best materials for your role.
