Instruction in core subject areas focus on the unique educational needs of each student. Teachers utilize research-based support strategies that engage students in standards-based grade level curriculum. Instruction is delivered in a variety of settings including general education classes and small group arrangements.

Students who need additional assistance may enroll in Directed Studies, a class designed to deliver personalized academic support. Students receive assistance with study skills and homework completion, while learning organization and test taking strategies.


REGULAR EDUCATION CLASSROOM SUPPORT

Special education staff work within the general education classroom to provide instructional assistance and support to all students. Special and general education teachers collaborate on a regular basis to discuss student progress toward goals. Adjustments to curriculum design and instructional delivery are made as needed, keeping in mind the diversity of learning styles found in today’s classroom setting.

Sign Language Interpreters are provided to students who are deaf or hard of hearing.

MONITOR/CONSULT

Students in the Resource Specialist Program are supported through progress monitoring by the Resource Specialist. When concerns arise, the resource specialist consults with parents, teachers and students to solve issues impeding academic achievement. Report card/progress report checks are used to help monitor student progress toward academic achievement and independence.

Special Education Department
Mission Statement

The San Juan Unified School District recognizes that many students are challenged by special needs and limitations in obtaining their education.  It is the intention of the Special Education Department to support the district’s mission and goals for all children on behalf of those who are individuals with exceptional needs.

We believe that individuals with exceptional needs should be educated to the maximum extent possible in accordance with their individual capabilities and in a manner that enables them to strive for their fullest potential. 



The Community Advisory Committee requests that all individuals avoid the use of acronyms and encourage the use of “People First” language.
