PHILOSOPHY
LPS places a high value on supporting every student to meet their learning potential. Students with disabilities, preschool through age 21, receive support in all district schools. A priority is to include every student in general education while recognizing and meeting individual needs through special education resources.
CHILD FIND PROCESS
LPS Child Find Team provides free developmental screenings for newborns and children up to five years of age who show delays in development that could interfere with their education and learning. Families must live within the District boundaries to access these services.
IDENTIFICATION
All LPS schools provide identification services to determine a student’s eligibility for special education services. If you are concerned about your child, please contact your school directly.
SERVICES
Each school site has a Learning Support Services team of professionals that can vary according to the needs of students in the building. Additionally, the District has a variety of center-based programs designed to provide more intensive support.
