Student Support Services

Student Support Services provides special education services for students with disabilities. These services consist of various supports and resources to help allow students to make effective progress in the general education curriculum. Special Education Teachers, Education Support Professionals and related service providers are members of the Student Support Services Department who collaborate with one another and general education teachers to ensure students receive academic, social/emotional, pre-vocational and communication supports. The Special Education teachers and staff who work in these settings service individual students according to their educational plans. They function as academic coaches for those students who need help with homework and study skills, as teachers of basic skills for those students who need reinforcement and support in those skill areas previously taught but not yet mastered, and as counselors for those students needing emotional, as well as educational support or they provide direct services for identified areas of need.
