We have an LD teacher, speech therapists, a staff school
psychologist, a staff social worker, a staff school nurse and a staff
occupational therapist to help students with academic, speech/language,
behavioral/psychological, social/emotional and/or fine motor disabilities,
respectively.
Sheridan
Elementary special education team members are all knowledgeable and experienced
in their area of expertise. The team members are trained to work with all
special needs students.
Sheridan
is proud to announce that it will be using a collaboration model to service
students with special needs. This means that there would be better
communication between the regular education teachers and the special education
teachers to meet the needs of the special education students so all the
students will be successful in their learning environment.
To
receive Special Education services, a student must first qualify. This is based
off of the criteria from the State. If they are eligible for the program then
they would receive above-mentioned special education services.
