Special Education
St. Louis Park Public Schools is committed to providing educational opportunities to all students, including those with disabilities. We carry out the obligations of state and federal laws within our schools and community. Special education services are provided for students based upon their educational needs. Their individual education plan (IEP) provides a framework for meeting those needs. All teachers receive a copy of the IEP and work collaboratively to meet the educational needs of the students.
Some of the Special Education Classes and Services include:
- Co-Taught Classes
- Language Arts
- Skills Development
- Social Emotional Learning (SEL)
- Alternative Instruction in Language & Literature, Math, and Science
- Life Skills Instruction in SEL, Reading, Math, Individuals and Societies, Science, and Independent Skills for Living
- Speech/Language Services
- Occupational Therapy
- Deaf/Hard of Hearing and Audiology, Visual, and Physical Impairment Support
