Special Education and Services for Special Populations at Parker Performing Arts

 

Like all charter schools, Parker Performing Arts (PPA) is a public school. PPA does not discriminate on the basis of disability, race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, ancestry, need for special education services, or any other grounds prohibited by law. PPA serves students with disabilities and English Learners and provides services to students as required by state and federal law.

 

Under the Individuals with Disabilities Act, students with disabilities are entitled to a Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) in the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE). Applicants to PPA are not required to identify whether the applicant has an IEP and the school admits students without considering a student’s disability. After a student with an IEP is initially enrolled in the school, an IEP team meeting may be required to determine whether this school is an appropriate placement for the student based on their needs. In most cases, the services required by a student with disabilities can be provided at PPA. In some cases, a student’s individual needs require that they be placed in a different program or location as determined by an IEP or Section 504 team. Information about disabilities will not be requested until a student has been admitted to the school.
