Special Education
The Special Education department is committed to providing effective, high-quality, specialized academic instruction for students with disabilities by establishing appropriate support services on an individualized basis.
The Special Education Department’s mission is to provide services and support to students with Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) in the least restrictive environment. In addition, our purpose is to ensure parents, students, and staff work together to make certain that appropriate services are provided on an individualized basis for every child with a disability. Special Education strives to create and maintain an effective learning environment by providing high-quality, evidence-based instruction and services for all students and we believe that all students can learn and succeed.
New to the district?
If your child is new to the district and has an existing IEP, please indicate that during registration and provide a copy of the current IEP.
NOTE: Our Special Education department will also request copies of the paperwork from the previous school.
Need your child assessed?
Use this guide to initiate an assessment:
Ensure your child is enrolled in their school of residence.
Write a letter or email to the Principal stating the following: your request for the assessment, area(s) of concern, and your best contact information.
Once the request is received, the site assessment team will contact you regarding the next steps.
TIP: The school locator is a useful tool to find the school of residence.

First, contact the assigned Case Manager to address any concerns regarding the IEP.
