Special Education

 

In an effort to become a more inclusive learning environment, the administration and staff of Oakdale Elementary School are committed to educating special education students to the maximum extent that is appropriate, in the general education setting. To this end, general and special education teachers work closely to best meet the specific learning needs of all students within their classrooms. A continuum of services including self-contained settings, language arts, math, and support classes are available for special education students. Within a student’s schedule they may have a combination of these settings along with general education classes based on their needs and IEP. The PPT is the vehicle to plan the most appropriate program for the student in the least restrictive environment, with input from parents and school personnel who know the student best.
