The Hickman County Board of Education recognizes and supports the need to provide special education
services within the school district and offers programs across the county.
Students with disabilities must be taught in the framework of the general education curriculum. General
education, vocational education and special education staff shall strive to coordinate their services as
designated in each student's Individualized Education Plan (IEP), in order to meet the needs of each
student who is eligible for special education supports and services.
The policy of the Hickman County School District is to ensure that students with disabilities are provided a
free appropriate public education (FAPE). The state's BEP formula will be used to determine class size for
all classrooms. Monitoring class size will occur periodically to ensure compliance with our district's policy
and state guidelines.
To ensure the provisions of a free appropriate public education (FAPE) according to state law and the
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) are being met, our district proposes the following:
Education placement decisions for all students, including students with disabilities, shall be made
based on the instructional needs of the students;
Staff development and training shall be made available for general education and special
education teachers (models, strategies, and interventions) for teachers working in an inclusive
classroom.
Interactive planning sessions shall be facilitated with special education and general education
teachers regarding each student's IEP;
General education teachers shall receive information on modifications and accommodations
included in their students IEPs;
All students in the general education classroom shall have access to instructional materials used
in the class with alternative or supplemental materials provided as needed;
Resources, supports, supplemental aid and materials shall be provided to help students progress
in the general curriculum and be successful in the general education classroom (e.g., assistive
technology devices and services, paraprofessional support, adaptations in the classrooms, etc.);
The Hickman County School System adopts the state and federal regulations in order to implement the
provision of special education and related services. This is to ensure compliance with state and federal
regulations in providing special education supports and services.
