If a student is determined to need Special Education services, where will they take place?

Under state and federal law, all children are entitled to an educational program which is designed to meet their individual educational needs. For students in need of special education services, an appropriate program is made up of "specially-designed instruction" and the "related services" needed to help the child benefit from that instruction. The program can be provided in a regular or special class or school, depending on the child's needs.
