Welcome Back!
RE-1 VALLEY SPECIAL EDUCATION
At RE-1 Valley School District, we strive to provide a quality education for all students. For our students with special needs, the Special Education Team meets the educational, social/emotional and physical needs of our students. These needs are met through staff collaboration, family involvement and evidence based-practices.
Each building has dedicated and caring professionals that work with and care for students daily. Every student is unique and we strive to meet and individualize for all students so they are able to demonstrate growth and achievement in all areas.
STAFF COLLABORATION
Our team works closely with all school staff members to create an inclusive environment for our students. We believe that all students benefit from working together with peers of all abilities and backgrounds, so we strive to maximize those opportunities for our students on IEPs.
FAMILY INVOLVEMENT
We believe that student success is a team effort and welcome communication and collaboration with our families. While our annual IEP meetings are essential times to plan for the success for your child, please don't wait until then to be involved. Connect with us through email, class dojo, and telephone.
EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES
From reading instructions to play skills, our staff is committed to providing your child with quality instruction and support that works! With the backing of building and district administration, staff is continually updated and trained in evidenced-based practices to support your child's social/emotional, behavioral and academic development.
