Special Education (K- 12 Grades)
Supporting Every Student’s Unique Needs
Special education services are designed to provide individualized support for students who qualify under state and federal guidelines. While some students face learning or behavioral challenges, not all require special education services. Our team works closely with families to determine the best path forward for each student.
Understanding the Special Education Process
Eligibility & Evaluation
To receive special education and related services, students must go through an evaluation process to determine eligibility. This process ensures that services are provided only when necessary and tailored to meet the student’s individual needs.
Important: Special education services are provided at no cost to parents.
The Role of Parents
Parents are valued team members throughout the entire special education referral process. Your insights and input are crucial in helping us understand your child’s unique strengths and needs.
