About our ESY Program
The Extended School Year (ESY) program is designed for students with disabilities who require specialized academic and related services to meet their individualized goals with support beyond the normal school year.

ESY offers small class sizes and the support of a full special education team. Students in the program may receive social work, speech language therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, the support of educational assistants, and other services, in accordance with their IEPs.
