Special Education

A man assisting a young student with their homework, providing guidance and support in their learning journey.

Learning from each other is growing together

We believe that every student deserves recognition, attention and respect, and all students must be offered rigorous academic programs and classrooms that support high achievement.

Our mission is to ensure that all school communities and departments embrace students with disabilities and provide evidence-based supports and resources to ensure that every student thrives!

Welcome to the 2024-25 school year!

We are so excited to serve our amazing Oakland students this year. We cordially invite all families and Oakland Special Education allies to participate in our Community Advisory Committee (CAC). A calendar of meetings and more information can be found here.
