Today we celebrate National Special Education Day! On December 2, 1975, President Ford signed into law the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. This law ensures that children with disabilities receive special education and related services. We'd like to take a moment to express our appreciation and gratitude to our incredible Special Education department for the uniquely challenging roles they play in providing an excellent educational experience for our students. THANK YOU to Hayley Hoover, Beth Plumblee, TJ Galloway, Stephen Herr and Shannon Balawi--You are amazing!!
