Due to the unprecedented school closures, the Division of Special Education is committed to providing ongoing guidance and resources as we continue together to navigate and provide support to all our students with their families. With the continued myriad of events caused by the COVID-19 pandemic situation, there should be an understanding that guidance can change quickly as new information evolves. The GDOE Division of Special Education will continue to provide updates regarding the impact of COVID-19 school closures on students with IEPs.
