Text Box: Special Education refers to the education of students with mild, moderate, or severe disabilities and those who are gifted and talented. It is founded on the belief that all children can learn and reach their full potential given opportunity, effective teaching and appropriate resources. Instruction, rather than setting, is the key to success, and decisions related to the placement of students are best made on an individual basis in a manner that maximizes their opportunity to participate fully in the experience of schooling. Each school within Holy Family Catholic School Division #37 has a person designated as Special Education Coordinator that is available to provide support to students, staff, and families regarding the needs of students. The Division’s Supervisor of Students Services provides support to each school regarding the programming needs of students with special needs. Students who are identified as having special needs will have an Individual Program Plan (IPP) in place in order to assist in meeting their needs. Developing the IPP will be a collaborative team effort involving the student, parents, teachers and other staff who work closely with the student’s programming.
