School District Partners With Everway for Unique Learning Curriculum Support

The Cabell Schools Board Meeting held on July 15, 2025, highlighted several key contracts and partnerships aimed at enhancing educational services and support for students in the district. The discussions underscored the importance of community collaboration in providing specialized resources for students with diverse needs.

One of the primary topics was the approval of contract 4.18 with Diversified Assessment and Therapy Services. This contract focuses on providing functional behavior assessments and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services for students requiring additional support. The involvement of board-certified behavioral analysts is crucial in addressing the unique challenges faced by these students, ensuring they receive tailored interventions that promote their educational success.

Another significant contract discussed was 4.19 with Everway LLC, previously known as N2Y. This partnership is vital for students in low incidence programs who follow alternate standards. Everway offers a data-driven curriculum designed specifically for these students, ensuring they have access to high-quality educational materials that meet their unique learning needs. The board expressed willingness to provide further information on this curriculum to enhance understanding and support for these programs.

Additionally, the board reviewed a memorandum of understanding with Marshall Health and Marshall Sports Medicine, which provides athletic trainers to the district at no cost. This partnership not only benefits student athletes by ensuring their health and safety during sports activities but also offers valuable career exploration opportunities for students interested in sports medicine.

The meeting also addressed contracts with local medical facilities, including HIMG, Cabell Huntington Hospital, Ebenezer Medical Outreach, and Valley Health. These agreements allow students in the adult medical assisting program to gain essential clinical experience without incurring costs, reinforcing the importance of community partnerships in education.

In conclusion, the discussions at the Cabell Schools Board Meeting emphasized the district's commitment to providing comprehensive support for all students through strategic partnerships and specialized programs. The board's focus on collaboration with local organizations not only enhances educational opportunities but also prepares students for future career paths in various fields. As these initiatives move forward, the community can anticipate continued improvements in educational resources and student support services.
