Segment 4: Special Education

Federal and state law guarantees every student the right to a free and appropriate public education regardless of disability.

If a parent/guardian believes that his or her child is in need of special education services, the parent/guardian has the right to seek an evaluation of his/her child to determine if he or she is eligible for such services.

If a staff member has a specific concern regarding the academic and/or social and behavior needs of a child, he or she should bring those concerns to the attention of the principal, upper school head, or other designee for initiation of a Response to Intervention and/or Instructional Support Team process.
