TODAY'S EVENTS

The ten Committees on Special Education (CSEs) store all students' special education records and are responsible for opening initial referrals for all students. CSEs handle Committee on Pre-School Education (CPSE) issues as well as all aspects of the special education process for students in non-public schools, private schools, charter schools, and for students who don't attend school. Functions include evaluations, developing the individualized education program (IEP) and handling disputes.

Evaluations for students in public schools are managed by a school based team of the CSE, called the IEP team and the schools are supported through this process by the Integrated Service Centers (ISCs), which handle disputes, including mediation or impartial hearings.

Listed below are the Chairpersons of the Committees on Special Education (CSE), and the office contact information, for each district.
