About Our Department

Special education services are determined by the Committee on Special Education to meet the individual needs of students. The Special Education Department works side by side with general education teachers, the guidance office, and administrators to meet student’s needs. We understand and appreciate the integral role parents play in their children’s education. We encourage regular communication between home and school. Any parent who feels their child is not performing at an appropriate level, should contact both the classroom teacher and guidance counselor in a timely manner. We look forward to a productive and successful year.
