Special Education

Stevenson High School provides all disabled students a free and appropriate public education. Student's parents serve as team members with the public school in determining eligibility for and provision of special education services. Once a student has been found eligible for special education and/or related services, an individualized educational program is developed to determine the extent of services appropriate for that student. It is the responsibility of this multi-disciplinary team to determine the most appropriate educational placement in the least restrictive environment.

Stevenson High School offers a continuum of services/programming, psychological testing services, social work, speech therapy services, and related services to eligible students.
