Important Information for Families
If you have placed your child in a non-public school at your expense and want your child to continue receiving special education services at that school you please review and complete the parent intent form no later than June 1, 2020. If you have any questions regarding this form, please email your Committee on Special Education at the email address(es) located below.
To ensure continuity of support to students and families to the greatest extent possible, the CSEs are shifting to a remote practice. Remote practice in the CSEs will provide an opportunity for students and families to remain connected and engaged with their evaluation and IEP process while participating from locations outside of the physical CSE offices from March 20, 2020 through April 17, 2020 as of now, due to COVID-19.
While the Committees on Special Education are temporarily closed you can get direct support from a Committee on Special Education staff member by emailing:
