Special Education / Info

Welcome to the Office of Special Education!

The Office of Special Education is responsible for the development, coordination and supervision of programming for students with disabilities. The Rochester City School District offers a variety of services and programs to meet the individual needs of all students.

At Roberto Clemente School No. 8 we recognize that each student is a unique individual and we strive to provide a program that supports each student in their educational pursuits. We are also committed to providing for the education of our students with disabilities to the maximum extent appropriate with other students who do not have disabilities and within the RCSD. We believe in collaborating with our parents to help each child be successful.

The Rochester City School District does not discriminate on the basis of an individual's actual or perceived race, color, religion, creed, ethnicity, national origin, citizenship status, age, marital status, partnership status, disability, predisposing genetic characteristics, sexual orientation, gender (sex), military status, veteran status, domestic violence victim status or political affiliation, and additionally does not discriminate against students on the basis of weight, gender identity, gender expression, and religious practices or any other basis prohibited by New York State and/or federal non-discrimination laws in employment or its programs and activities. The District provides equal access to community and youth organizations.
