Special Education
CUSD is committed to providing quality special education services in the least restrictive environment for all special needs children. Students are placed in programs that provide maximum inclusion in general education classes and maximum interaction with their non-disabled peers.
The district provides a full continuum of services for students with mild to intensive needs. All of our special education programs focus on building academic, social-emotional, communication, pre-vocational, vocational and functional life skills within the educational setting.
