Special Education Annual Report to the Board of Education Jamesville-DeWitt Central School District October 19, 2015

Special Education Special education is provided when a student with a disability requires specially designed instruction to meet their unique needs. In accordance with IDEA, the most basic responsibility school districts have regarding the education of children with disabilities is to provide all those eligible, a free and appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment to meet their individual needs. In accordance with their Individualized Education Program, students are eligible until they obtain a local high school or regents diploma, or until the end of the school year in which the child turns 21.
