Special Education

Special education consists of services and programs designed to meet the educational needs of students who meet state and federal eligibility criteria. To qualify for special education services, students must demonstrate the presence of a disability and also demonstrate the need for specially designed instruction. Regardless of the student’s disability, students are included in general education to the fullest extent appropriate.

South Allegheny School District offers a variety of services for students with special needs.  These services include: gifted support, speech support, learning support, emotional support, and life skills support.
