When implemented across a team or district, the Stimulation Profile system creates consistency and clarity in how students with sensory, regulation, and EF needs are supported. It strengthens behavior plans, reduces escalation, improves alignment between classroom practices and IEP documentation, and closes compliance gaps. It also helps teams document what works, providing clear evidence of support and outcomes for procedural safeguards.

The Stimulation Profile captures what is happening in real time—what triggers dysregulation, which supports are effective, and how the student responds across settings. This data strengthens present levels of performance, IEP goals, BIPs, and accommodations. It helps teams shift from reactive decisions to clear, documented, proactive supports grounded in observable patterns—not subjective opinion.

The Stimulation Profile gives teams a proactive way to identify and respond to sensory, regulation, and executive functioning needs—especially for students who may not show those needs clearly in typical assessments. It works across all MTSS tiers and supports students with trauma histories, neurodivergence, and complex profiles where behavior is often misinterpreted. The system provides structured insights so supports are built around actual student patterns, not assumptions.

The Stimulation Profile helps teams move from broad observations to actionable plans. Instead of vague phrases like “needs breaks” or “requires support for regulation,” teams can document exactly what helps, when it helps, and why. The result is accommodations and supports that are specific, measurable, and aligned to the student’s sensory and regulation needs.

The Stimulation Profile identifies which sensory inputs are calming versus triggering, which tools the student uses effectively, and when interventions should be applied for best outcomes. This leads to accommodations that are individualized—not generic—reducing gaps between what is written in the IEP and what is delivered in practice.

The Stimulation Profile strengthens formal assessments and behavior plans. It helps teams collect real-time sensory and regulation data before an FBA, clarify which strategies are effective within a BIP, and ensure that IEP goals and accommodations match what is happening in the classroom. The Profile is a bridge that supports stronger compliance and more effective, student-centered planning.

No. The Stimulation Profile is not a replacement for required assessments, Functional Behavior Assessments (FBAs), or Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs). It is a tool that helps teams collect clearer observational data and apply supports more effectively within those frameworks. It strengthens existing processes and aligns with federal and state requirements for providing a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE).

The Stimulation Profile gives teams a clearer record of what supports are provided and how students respond. This reduces gaps between what is written in the IEP and what happens in the classroom, one of the most common sources of compliance issues. It also provides a clear trail of data that can be used to strengthen present levels, justify goals, and demonstrate appropriate responses to student needs, protecting both the district and the team.

The Stimulation Profile system features a comprehensive Administrator Implementation Guide to ensure consistency and alignment across all teams. It outlines clear usage expectations, monitoring guidelines, and additional resources for future staff training.

Districts have the option to arrange additional paid coaching sessions and implementation check-ins with Michelle Velazquez to boost staff confidence and ensure compliance. These sessions, referred to as fidelity coaching sessions and implementation check-ins, are designed to ensure that the Profile is not only completed but also consistently utilized across different settings. This approach enhances team alignment and upholds procedural integrity.
