Special Education

At Provident Charter Schools’ Special Education Department, we are proud to offer a full range of services and programs tailored to our students’ unique needs. Our goal is to develop effective, individualized programs by fostering strong collaboration among parents, students, teachers, administrators, and support personnel. Intervention levels are personalized to student needs and determined directly by the IEP team.

We hold high expectations for all learners while deeply respecting their individual differences. To support this, our department regularly trains staff and families and invests heavily in resources that help students transition smoothly into high school.

How to Request an Evaluation
If you suspect your child may need special education services, you have the right to request an evaluation at any time. You can make a written or verbal request to your Building Principal or the Director of Pupil Services. We will provide a “Permission to Evaluate” form within 10 calendar days of your request.

In line with the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Pennsylvania state law (Chapter 711), Provident Charter Schools is committed to finding, locating, and evaluating all students who may need special education and related services, regardless of the severity of their disability. This notice ensures all families are aware of the services we provide, how to request them, and the screening tools we use to support our students.
