SPECIAL EDUCATION
(as available)

Special education classes strive to serve the student with special educational needs. Students are enrolled in these classes upon recommendation of the ARD (Admit, Review, and Dismissal) Committee. The student's IEP (Individual Education Plan) determines the manner in which content and teaching methods are to meet the educational needs of each student.
Special education students are often enrolled in regular classes with modifications in assignments being determined by the ARD Committee. After a student has received initial instruction in the regular classroom, he/she may go to the Content Mastery classroom for additional individual assistance.
