Moderate/Severe Special Education Program
Special Education programs are designed to provide a special environment or assistance to students with diagnosed disabilities. Examples of some of the disabilities which can be accommodated through Special Education services are learning disabilities, speech and language disorders, visual and hearing impairments, physical disabilities, and motional disorders.
In the Moderate / Severe Program we mostly use the Unique Learning System which is a curriculum specifically designed for our students with special needs.
The topics are age appropriate and are based on standards that are used in the general education curriculum.
Here is a list of our monthly units:
- August: All About Me
- September: Leaders In Our Lives (government)
- October: Knowing Our Ecosystems (life science)
