SUPPORT FOR CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES
Moon school provides special education services as provided by the Individuals with Disabilities Act (I.D.E.A.) and are committed to providing a free and appropriate education to all of our students. Teachers collaborate and work to provide in school interventions for students that are struggling and if students are not making progress a Student Study Team (SST) meeting is scheduled. This team consists of parents, teachers, specialists, and the school administration. At the SST, the team looks at the students progress, academically and socially; along with what interventions have been implemented and the effectiveness of these interventions. If there is a suspected learning disability the child is referred for special education services assessment.
If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher, school administrator, or the district's Educational Services Department.
