Welcome to the Department of Special Education
-
Our Special Education Beliefs:
- With the proper support and opportunities, every student can learn and succeed.
- Learning differences and disabilities are to be respected
- Parents of children with special needs should be viewed as valuable partners
- Collaboration between special education and general education staff is imperative
- All school staff are responsible for meeting the individual needs of students
- Language differences are not disabilities, nor should they be a barrier to special education supports and service
- All special education services should aim to minimize the impact of a disability while maximizing opportunities for students to participate in the general curriculum
- Involving students with special needs in decisions affecting their education is empowering -- fueling self-efficacy and the ability to successfully transition into higher education and/or employment
- High expectations informed by ongoing assessments foster a special education system that is fluid -- enabling students to enter and exit as appropriate
- Special education staff are valued professional members of a school team
