Special Education
We believe all kids can succeed! As part of our commitment to help all students reach their potential, we offer a top-notch special education program in all grades to identify, diagnose, and serve students with special educational needs or disabilities.
SEPAC
Let’s get together to share our thoughts and concerns, hopes and ideas. The Special Education Parents Advisory Council (SEPAC) is a great resource to find community events and workshops to help all families with special needs flourish.
We’re excited to meet you and work together to make decisions that will impact the future of special education.
Please visit the SEPAC Facebook page for more information.
