Arrive at a scheduled service session using a reminder
When to use this goal
For students whose present levels show related-service sessions, counselor meetings, or check-ins missed because no one came to get them. For students who move between rooms alone.
- Baseline
- For two weeks, record whether the student arrived on time, late, or had to be collected for each scheduled session. Ask the student what they rely on now (the teacher, a peer, nothing).
- Tips
- Each scheduled session is one opportunity. Met means arrival within 3 minutes without an adult coming to the classroom. Classroom teachers should not remind unless that support level is chosen. The service provider records arrival time.
- Limits
- Teachers sometimes hold students for a lesson; exclude those sessions. Sessions that move or get canceled create confusion that is not the student's fault.

- Record up to 5 opportunities per session, matching the goal's denominator.
- Define in advance what counts as an opportunity so every data collector records the same thing.
- Count only + marks toward the criterion unless the goal specifies prompted responses.
