LEEWAY SCHOOL

About Our Classes

​

     All evaluations and services are provided at no cost to families and are based on the individual needs of the preschool child found to have a disability as determined by the Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE) of the local school district. The parents will work with the CPSE to determine the location where recommended special education services will be provided.

​

     Our special education teachers promote a child's areas of strength and develops areas of weakness. Areas of focus may include attention, social skills, cognition, fine and gross motor skills, language and communication. 

    Leeway School has an open door policy. We communicate with parents through an app called "Brightwheel," a secured sight where you can safely communicate between home and school using your smartphone.  Parents are welcome at all times to view their child's class with a one way mirror.
