San Francisco Unified School District launches GoalView for Special Education Student Information Management
GoalView™ Specialized Student Information System -- Accountability for Special Education, Intervention RTI, Title 1 and Other Specialized Student Programs --
SANTA ROSA, CA -- Learning Tools International (LTI), a long time provider
of specialized student information management systems, announced that San Francisco
Unified School District (SFUSD) has completed training of over 500 staff to use GoalView,
LTI’s web-based student information management system that is in use in many educational
institutions throughout the U.S. to manage special education business processes.
Implementation of this system will help SFUSD streamline its special education administrative
functions, thereby reducing costs and paperwork, increasing staff productivity, ensuring
regulatory compliance, increasing the recovery of Medicaid reimbursable funds, and enabling
24-hour system accessibility while maintaining data security and integrity.
Developed by Learning Tools International, a Santa Rosa, Calif.-based firm, GoalView is a
web-based student information management system for Special Education, Intervention (RTI),
ELL and other educational programs that provide Individualized Education Plans, Progress
Reporting and State and Federal Compliance Reporting to ensure accountability and improve
achievement.
GoalView provides a simple, consistent way to plan and track student achievement, improve
accountability, ensure compliance, facilitate communication and improve collaboration.
Introduced in 1999, GoalView has since been implemented in over 100 school districts around
the country to help achieve goals mandated by the No Child Left Behind Act, and the
Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA).
Learning Tools has customized the GoalView Special Education management system for SFUSD
starting with the Referral through the IEP process.
“GoalView has a proven track record in helping educators and children stay on track as
they work together to achieve their specialized program goals,” said Cathy Zier, President,
Learning Tools International. “We feel confident that our attention to detail and customized
efforts to help meet the needs of special children will result in a positive outcome.” “The
SFUSD IT and Special Education teams have been a tremendously enthusiastic and a dedicated
partner to work with on achieving these important goals.”
Learning Tools International is led by President and General Manager, Cathy D. Zier. Before
joining Learning Tools in 1998, Ms Zier spent thirteen years as a Special Education professional,
implementing student information management systems, teacher training, as well as state and
local technology programs. She also spent 10 years with Apple Computer working in national
and international sales, organizational design and customer management.
