Accommodation of Students with Special Needs
The school strives to accommodate students with physical, emotional, social, or learning challenges. However, families must fully disclose the nature and known extent of such challenges at the time of registration. The school has limited resources to meet certain challenges and may recommend educational alternatives that may better serve the needs of some students.
At Christ the King, the Student Success Team (SST) oversees the process of identifying and managing the special educational needs of students. The SST is headed by the Resource Coordinator and consists of a resource teacher, classroom teacher, guidance counselor, and other teachers and administrators, as necessary. A student in need of academic support is referred to the school’s SST that will, in turn, develop learning strategies and instructional support for the student. Support may include resource teacher assistance, push-in assistance, and pull-out assistance.
The feasibility of accepting or retaining an enrolled student with special needs in the school depends on several factors, including: the nature and extent of the needs and accommodations and the staff’s ability to make reasonable accommodations to instruction and the facility.
