Special Education/Student Services

Ohio school districts are required to provide FAPE, Free Appropriate Public Education, to all children in their attendance area who are determined to have a disability (ages 3-21). Disability in this case means such conditions as:

Autism
Intellectual Disability
Deaf-blindness
Deaf and Hearing Impaired
Emotional Disturbance
Multiple Disability
Orthopedic Impairment
Other Health Impairments
Specific Learning Disability
Speech or Language Impairment
Traumatic Brain Injury

The Deer Park Community City School District will provide a multi-factored evaluation to determine if a child has a disability and what their educational needs are based on that evaluation. Deer Park offers a continuum of program options for students with special needs, who are evaluated and require special education services.
