Continuum

The district provides special education services, including gifted services, in the least restrictive environment, to the maximum extent appropriate, based on a student's individual needs. The IEP team, including parents, determines the appropriate service or combination of services that are needed in order for students to meet their individual goals. Types of services/programs include:

Consultation Services: Services provided through regularly scheduled collaborative meetings between general and special educators. Consultative services are provided to staff rather than directly to students.
 
General Education (in-class) Support: Special education services are provided in the general education classroom. Collaboration occurs between the general and special educators to design accommodations and/or modifications needed for the general education curriculum.
 
Resource Room Support: Specially designed instruction is provided in a separate setting within the school. Most students spend the majority of their day in the general education setting.
 
Structured Learning Program: Structured Learning Programs are located both within the district and outside of the district. Students in these programs spend the majority of their instructional day within the program’s classroom.
