November 30th Session
Understanding the Schedule of Services & Levels of Support
The schedule of services lists special education instructional services/support and related services your child receives. The schedule of services shows the start and end dates, frequency, and duration of service as well as location (general or special education).
According to state and federal law, children with disabilities must receive their education in the least restrictive environment. Your child must receive instruction with nondisabled peers to the maximum extent appropriate.If your child’s disability is so severe that education in a general education classroom is not possible, even with support, your child should receive services in a more specialized environment. The school district must offer a range of placements and supports.
