Special Education

Welcome to Special Education!

Coatesville Area School District's mission statement demonstrates the district's belief that all children can learn. It is not uncommon for students to require additional supportive services on the road to learning, growing, socializing and becoming contributing members of their society.

The Department of Special Education of the Coatesville Area School District is dedicated to all students and supporting their needs in order to achieve their personal best. We are proactive in our philosophy in meeting the needs of students.  Coatesville Area School District provides a network of highly trained professionals to counsel students and their family, connect children and caregivers to programs and services, assess levels of learning, support the physical and mental health of students, and provide training for staff throughout the district to better interact to benefit children and their families.
