Special Education Service Delivery Grounding Principles

We seek to leverage challenges for students with disabilities by ensuring they can access the support and tools to improve their educational outcomes. We believe that Special Education is a service rather than a place, and we know that most students can receive their services along with their peers in the general education classroom.

We Believe

• All students with disabilities will have access to grade-level instruction.
• All students can learn and have varied learning styles. We are responsible for building on students' strengths and helping them access their learning modalities.
• Effective and rigorous co-teaching prepares students with disabilities for success and independence as productive, contributing community citizens.
• Students with disabilities deserve to receive all the services and support delineated in their IEP to meet their goals and exceed their highest potential.
