Agora’s Special Education department delivers a robust and comprehensive program to ensure all specifications of a student’s Individualized Education Plan (IEP) are met. It includes supports and services for students who have a confirmed educational disability under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Specially designed instruction and a standards-based curriculum are delivered by qualified staff to meet the educational, emotional and physical needs of all students.
SPECIAL EDUCATION
Your student can chart a new course with a special education program that is designed for them!
Individualized Education Plan
Upon enrollment, an IEP is implemented immediately. An individualized review of your student’s special education documents is conducted, and curriculum-based measures are completed. Within 30 days of enrollment, your child’s team meets with you and the student to develop a new IEP, which is adapted to cyber education. Once developed, the IEP is implemented across all educational settings and supported by live instructional sessions in general and/or special education. Agora staff rally around your student to ensure a successful online educational experience.
