Early Childhood Special Education Programs

We are proud to serve our students with varying exceptionalities and needs in a variety of programs! Our programs range from general education to specialized classrooms. Placement into a specialized program is determined by the child's Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and special education team. Our EC Special Education programs serve both PK and TK grade level students.
 
Below you will find a list of our various programs, as well the program brochures which share more information about the program. While these brochures are meant to share a little bit more about the program, please note that invidiualized supports and services are outlined in each child's Individualized Education Plan.

Special Education Resources 

We recognize that going through special education can be an overwhelming and emotional process. Please know that we are here to support our families however we can. Below you will find some links to some helpful resources, including:
