Special Education
All students require support from teachers, classmates, family and friends to thrive and benefit from their school experience. Some students have special needs that require additional supports beyond those in a classroom setting. The District supports these needs through a tiered cycle of continuous assessment and responsive intervention for academic, social and emotional needs. Students can be formally identified through the Identification, Placement and Review Process and have an Individual Education Plan (IEP) that guides their programming; or have an Individual Education Plan without the formal identification.
Classroom teachers focus on universal design for learning and differentiated instruction to meet students' needs. Special education programs and services in the Renfrew County District School Board (RCDSB) support classroom teachers in meeting the needs of our diverse group of learners with special education needs.
Special education provides assessment, consultative programming, and direct intervention for exceptional students. We provide opportunities for students to grow and learn in a supportive environment that recognizes individual differences and promotes the full potential of students. We do this by liaising with the school, the home and the community.
