Our department strives to meet the unique and individual needs of each of our students in preschool through high school graduation.  We believe that special education is a set of supports and services rather than a place and we choose to focus on the student rather than the disability.  We believe that all children are uniquely talented and capable of achieving high levels. We work in collaboration with each of our buildings to create learning environments to support the varying needs of our students. 

Our goal is to use current student information and data to craft and implement meaningful Individual Education Plans that activate engagement, increase student learning and decrease barriers in all environments.  We are committed to serve our students, families and staff and provide the supports that they need to be successful. We look forward to working with you!
