Important Information About ID Moderate and AU

UPDATE: March 15, 2018

 

We are in the second year of a four-year plan to improve how we serve students enrolled in ID Moderate and AU classes.

 

By 2020, all such students at the middle and high levels will attend their base school, and elementary students will attend regional programs closer to home.

 

They will be served by Extended Content Standards (ECS) classes. Learn more.

 

We look forward to the positive changes that come with this continued transition of assigning students to their base school or a school as close to home as possible.

  • Students in some cases will be able to attend school with their siblings and neighborhood peers;
  • Students will have more opportunities to become an integral part of their school community;
  • Students will have more opportunities to engage in community-based instruction and job training within the communities where they live;
  • In most cases, travel to and from school with be shorter.

 

All students will continue to receive special education and related services as outlined in their IEP and instruction tailored to their unique needs.

 

If a student has transportation accommodations and/or modifications outlined in their IEP, they will continue to receive special transportation as a related service.
