Session #2: Understanding Special Needs Classifications and Special Education Eligibility

Join us via Zoom as we engage our families in developing a deeper understanding of special education evaluations, eligibility criteria, and more. In this focused session, we will explore the various disability classifications recognized by New York State and unpack the steps involved in determining a student's eligibility for services. Families will learn how assessments are used to make these critical decisions and how a classification helps shape a tailored educational plan, providing you with the knowledge needed to confidently navigate the evaluation process within NYC Public Schools.
