Special Education Programs |
In Columbia County students with disabilities receive services and supports along the continuum of educational environments ranging from the general education setting in students' home schools to full-day programs in specialized facilities. Students receive evaluations in all areas of suspected disability. Special education and related services are designed as needed and are appropriate in order to meet the unique needs of the student with a disability. The Individualized Education Program (IEP) committee determines the type and degree of needed services. Students and parents are afforded all due process procedural safeguards as outlined in the individuals with Disabilities Act, (IDE IA of 2004).
