We have students ages ten to fifteen that are specific learning disabled, other health impaired, autistic and emotionally disturbed. They are typical middle school students with some extra obstacles but they overcome these obstacles daily. We have a total of forty students in our program and most are two to four years below grade level when compared to their peers. Some have significant behavior challenges. We have the same students for three years so we are always finding new lessons to hold their interest. We are a small school of three hundred and fifty students. Our school is highly academic with mixed economic levels and ethnicity. The general education students and staff are very supportive of our students with special needs.
