Eligibility
Wyoming Public Schools offers a continuum of programs and services for students who qualify for special education. Wyoming has a full diagnostic staff that conducts student evaluations and provides support services to students, teachers, and parents.
Typically, requests for individual student evaluations are generated through the building-level Child Study Team process when there is a question as to whether a student may have a disability that impedes or impacts the learning process. Parents may request a multi-disciplinary evaluation be completed if there is suspicion that their child may have a disability. For school or parent initiated referrals, signed parental permission is necessary, and an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) is conducted within 30 days of initial consent. Wyoming Public Schools adheres to state and federal policies and laws.
