Welcome to Career Path High Special Education


Students who have been identified with disabilities receive specialized instruction designed to meet their unique learning needs, giving them the opportunity to develop to their fullest potential. In the United States, special education is delivered, free of charge, through the public education system, in alignment with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Here at Career Path High, we strive to help all students achieve success both in school, and in their future endeavors.

Resources

 Our Special Education Department attempts to identify all children with disabilities who are currently enrolled at the school.


If a child is having significant difficulty with vision, hearing, speech and/or behavior or is experiencing slow development atypical for his/her age, physical impairments or learning difficulty then he/she may be a child with a disability.  Disabilities that could interfere with education include: autism, deaf-blindness, deafness, emotional disturbance, hearing impairment, intellectual disabilities, multiple disabilities, orthopedic impairment, specific learning disabilities, communication disorders, traumatic brain injury and visual impairment.  Federal law mandates the provision of free educational programs and/or services for such persons.

If you know of a current Career Path High student who may have a disability, including a student suspected of having a disability, please contact Josh Epperson (link to email), 385-381-3090 ext. 1007

If you are the parent of a child with an IEP enrolled in a public school, the district is required by Utah Code Section 53A-1a-704 (10) to inform you of the availability of a scholarship to attend a private school through the Carson Smith Scholarship Program.


If your student currently attends Career Path High, or has recently attended, please contact Josh Epperson (email and phone number) if you need a copy of any documents contained in the Special Education file.


 Notice of Document Destruction


  Career Path High is required to give public notice before destroying any archived Special Education records.
