About Special Education

May 29th Update

According to IDEA, public school systems must consult with representatives of private schools and parents regarding the provision of special education and related services within the school system’s jurisdiction.

Due to school closures and safety precautions that are required in connection to COVID-19, this year’s consultation will be held in the form of a Zoom meeting with accompanying presentation materials.  This meeting will be held on June 16, 2020, at 9:00AM.

To assist in planning, please indicate your intention to participate in the meeting by emailing Karla Swafford at Karla.Swafford@hallco.org or by calling 770-534-1080 with the name and email address of the individual from your school that will represent your school.  The Zoom link and instructions will be sent to the email address provided.  We look forward to seeing you on June 16.
