The Manchester Essex School Department follows state and federal policies and procedures and has in place programs and services that are consistent with federal and state special education laws and regulations. Students are determined eligible for Special Education Services after a comprehensive evaluation is administered and reviewed by the Educational Team.
Each eligible student is provided with a free and appropriate public education and receives special education and related services in accordance with an Individualized Educational Program (IEP). Special Education includes related services necessary to access the general curriculum and specially designed instruction to meet the unique needs of the student.
The school district assures that, to the maximum extent possible, children with disabilities are educated with children who are not disabled and participate with non-disabled children in nonacademic and extracurricular services and activities.
