Welcome to the Special Education Department

The Special Education Department provides assistance and resources for exceptional students.  Special Education Resource Teachers monitor identified students, coordinate the Individual Education Plan implementation and review and provide strategies to be used in programming and assisting student learning.


The Special Education Department provides a variety of programs to assist students identified as exceptional by an IPRC and to those students who have needs beyond those that are met by regular classroom instruction.  Programs and services are provided through both individual and group approaches. Our staff focuses on assessment, remedial work, and development of learning skills. 


In addition, a learning strategies course (offered to students in grades 9-12), is available through referrals by the Abbey Park School Resource Team and/or recommendations from feeder school staff.
