Special education services are provided in accordance with Ohio's Model Policies and Procedures for the Education of Children with Disabilities.
Approximately 12% of the Hamilton Local student population has been identified with a disability. The special education students' needs are typically served in the regular education classroom with additional support provided by an intervention specialist. Special education services are provided according to each child's individual needs and in the least restrictive environment.
