Special Education
Students who meet the
criteria for Special Education services as defined in the Individuals
with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and the California Education Code
are placed on an Individual Education Plan (IEP). This plan outlines
academic goals the student is trying to achieve and the support services
the school has put in place to assist the student in reaching these
goals. Additionally, each student on an IEP is assigned a case manager
that oversees this IEP and makes sure the student's needs are being met.
In order to meet the IDEA regulations and California Education codes, Pacific Trails Middle School offers a variety of special education services to support students who have a documented disability and are eligible for an Individual Education Plan (IEP). These services include, but are not limited to:
- core level academic courses
- school psychologist services
- Learning Commons
- speech and language pathologist services
- occupational therapy
- assistive technology
