Special Education
All students with disabilities who require special education services have Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). The IEP contains information about your child's interests, strengths, needs, goals, and educational program. It is a legal document that describes how the DOE will provide your child:
- A Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE)
- In the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE).
The DOE is conducting evaluations and IEP meetings for DOE students this summer at the locations below. Please contact the supervisor in charge at the site if you'd like to schedule an evaluation and/or make a referral. Preschool. parochial, charter, and non-public school students should continue to contact their CSE.
