Our goal is to provide students differentiated, researched based instruction that will support a successful transition to adult life.

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA-Part B, Public Law 108.446) Project is presently being amended.

Interested persons are encouraged to review amendments to the Project and make comments concerning the implementation of special education under this Federal Program. All comments will be considered prior to submission of the amended Project to the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction in Raleigh, North Carolina. The IDEA-Part B Project is open to the public for review and comments during the week of May 21st to May 23rd, 2025, and May 27th-28th between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm.
