Comprehensive District Design Recommendations:  Special Education Citywide Programming

 

Region 1

 

>>>>>    Comprehensive District Design---  SPED Citywide Programming

                                                                  

>>>>>    The Special Education (Specialized Citywide Programming) recommendations for the Comprehensive District Design create clear pathways for students who may not be having their needs met in their current school communities.  Some schools have many more students receiving Special Education Services than others

 

>>>>>    These recommendations would balance Special Education services across the district and allow more school choice within community schools so that students could progress through grades with their general education peers.  This re3comended structure  can be easily changed to accommodate changing student needs and students’ Individual Education Plans (IEPs)
