Inclusive Education: Who are our students with special needs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Inclusive Education mission of the Eastern Townships School Board (ETSB) is to help all students be their best by ensuring a compassionate, quality learning environment that respects the uniqueness of each student through an individualized inclusive learning service.

Any student who requires support to demonstrate and acquire knowledge, develop competency, develop autonomy and achieve social integration.
Specifically, but not limited to students with:<\/strong>
\ud83d\udd39a disability<\/a>\u00a0<\/mark>that may have an impact on academic and school success;
\ud83d\udd39a\u00a0social or adaptive behaviours difficulties<\/mark><\/a>\u00a0that may have an impact on academic and school success;
\ud83d\udd39a\u00a0learning difficulty<\/mark><\/a>\u00a0that may have an impact on academic and school success;
\ud83d\udd39any difficulties putting them at risk<\/mark><\/a> in their overall development, learning or school success.

Parents who feel that their child might experience difficulties at school for any number of reasons are strongly encouraged to reach out to their child\u2019s teacher or school principal. Sharing what they know about their child\u2019s interests, strengths, difficulties and other pertinent information will bring about a better understanding of the student\u2019s abilities and needs. Open discussions and communication are key to any child\u2019s school success.

Special Education Advisory Committee<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Education Act (Bill 107) requires that every school board have an advisory committee on services to special needs students.

This committee is made up of people from the entire school community but parents of students who have an I.E.P. (Individualized Education Plan) must be in the majority on the committee.

The committee advises the school board on the following matters:<\/strong>
\u2013 The policy for services given to special needs students.
\u2013 The allocation of financial resources used to provide services to special needs students.
\u2013 It may also advise the board on the implementation of an individualized education plan for specific special needs students.

This committee allows you to meet and talk with other parents who have special needs children. It also allows you to stay up-to-date on current issues concerning special education. You are welcome to voice your opinions and share your experiences.
If your child is handicapped, has a learning disability, or has behavioural difficulties you may want to join this committee and provide your input to the school board.  The committee meets five times per year.
Normally the meetings will take place in Magog and mileage will be covered. Meeting are held via videoconference when necessary (COVID-related measures, weather, etc.).

We are looking for one parent per school to be part of the committee. Applicants will be considered on a first come first served basis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
