Exceptional Student Education Services
The Exceptional Education and Student Services Department is committed to supporting students with diverse learning needs, their families, and schools in providing access to a high-quality education. The Exceptional Education and Student Services Department provides services and supports for students with disabilities, gifted learners, and other eligible students.
The EE/SS Placement Office provides support to schools and parents with placements and transportation arrangements for students who receive exceptional education services in self-contained* or low-incidence settings. School placements are made based on the student’s residential address or the address from which the student is transported. Transportation arrangements to self-contained/low-incidence school sites are set up to ensure that students access their ESE services at the school closest to their address that has their recommended setting and available space. The Placement Office is available throughout the school year to answer questions regarding placements to ESE self-contained/low-incidence settings and to process transportation requests. Please direct all question to Email ESE Placement.
At GPE, we have 4 PreK VE (Varying Exceptionalities) classrooms, 2 VPK Blended Classrooms and 11 Communication and Social Skills Classrooms (CSS) to serve our exceptional education students. In addition, we have inclusion classrooms on all grade levels K-5.
