Special Education
- Special education is not a place. It is the most intensive intervention along the continuum of service defined by individual need, services, and placement.
- Strong leadership at every level is the foundation of a collaborative and inclusive environment that supports ALL students.
- All students are general education students first. Every student can learn, demonstrate growth, and must have access to high quality, evidence-based instruction that maximizes their potential in the least restrictive environment.
- Educators are professionals, content experts, and the key to student success. They should be supported instructionally and professionally.
- All students can achieve post-secondary success.
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is a federal law ensuring appropriate services to children with disabilities throughout the nation. IDEA governs how states and public agencies provide early intervention, special education, and related services to more than 6.5 million eligible infants, toddlers, children, and youth with disabilities. Infants and toddlers with disabilities (ages birth through age two) and their families receive early intervention services under IDEA, Part C. Children and youth (ages 3–21) receive special education and related services under IDEA, Part B.
In addition to meeting the legal requirements of IDEA, the commitment made by districts and schools to provide a high-quality education in an inclusive setting to all students with disabilities is crucial to their success.
La Ley de Educación para Individuos con Discapacidades (IDEA) es una ley federal que garantiza los servicios adecuados a los niños con discapacidades en todo el país. IDEA rige la forma en que los estados y los organismos públicos proporcionan intervención temprana, educación especial y servicios relacionados a más de 6,5 millones de bebés, niños pequeños, niños y jóvenes con discapacidades elegibles. Los bebés y niños pequeños con discapacidades (de nacimiento a dos años) y sus familias reciben servicios de intervención temprana bajo IDEA, Parte C. Los niños y jóvenes (de 3 a 21 años) reciben educación especial y servicios relacionados bajo IDEA, Parte B.
Además de cumplir con los requisitos legales de IDEA, el compromiso asumido por los distritos y las escuelas de proporcionar una educación de alta calidad en un entorno inclusivo a todos los estudiantes con discapacidades es crucial para su éxito.
