Special Education Programs are provided for students ages 3 to eighth grade in the least restrictive environment. A full continuum of program options are available and include regular classrooms, resource centers, special classes, home instruction, and occasionally, when required, programs in public or private schools for the disabled. Every effort is made to include students with disabilities to the maximum extent appropriate with students who are not disabled. Related Services including, but limited to school nursing services, speech/language therapy, occupational and physical therapies, counseling, and special transportation are provided to students who are deemed in need of such services by the IEP team in consultation with specialists.
